The Sales Management Equivalent to Baseball's Pitch Count
| |
| One friend suggested I find a way to correlate pitch count to sales.
No problem.
I am not a proponent of a sales manager doing the closing for his salespeople, however, should a two-call close cycle be on its fourth call; a six month sales cycle be in its tenth month, an exception is certainly called for.

The Heart of Business
| |
| For decades, I have been a proponent of, and keynoter in the field of, Spirituality in the Workplace. There seem to be different names for it these days: the heart of business, corporate social responsibility, conscious capitalism, patient capitalism, bringing the heart to work.
