    Power Tool: Authentic Vs. False

    Sales Coach, UNITED STATES

    Most of us grew up with love and wonder in our hearts, we could easily express our emotions and feelings. As children if we were happy we smiled and giggled, if we were sad we cried, got mad, threw a tantrum. We were free to be. Along the way we began to become programmed, we would shout with glee and someone would say “quiet down” we would cry over a disappointment and would hear “ its not that big of a deal, or it’s not worth crying over” I am not suggesting that there isn’t a time and a place for expressing these emotions, sitting in a restaurant and “shouting gleefully” probably is not that appropriate. But I am saying that this programming that I am speaking of has profoundly affected our adult lives. So many people are becoming aware of peoples energies, making determinations on what their instincts are telling them about that person, it is a much more intangible state of being, but none the less it is becoming wildly popular. If we are not being our “Authentic self” people will notice.

    How this blend, positively impacts sales people and sales organizations

    Introduction

    When sales people think about their job it usually comes down to the numbers. What is the quota they need to reach to keep their bosses happy, what amount of money do they need to make. How many opportunities must they get from marketing, how many sales calls must they accomplish, of those sales calls how many will buy their product and of the ones that buy their product, what will they buy and how much will they spend. What skills does the salesperson need? How to market? How to cold call? They must learn the steps of the sales process. Their sales organizations ‘pitch”? How to “close” the sale?

    By: Sanjay Nangalia

    My coaching model is client centric. At the center and core of the A5 model is the client and their agenda. The role of the coach is to hold the space for the client and flow with their agenda. The A5 coaching model allows the coach to support the client to come to come to self awareness of the real issues that the client is dealing with; decide the what they want to do with the issue, explore the alternatives that will work best for them; narrow down on the alternatives ,work towards a SMART actions plan ,help them to decide an accountability structure and finally appreciate, acknowledge and celebrate their progress.
