The Bit About Me

With over $200m in contracts sold, across an individual contributor and leadership career, I have been through almost every sales scenario imaginable. I look upon sales as a supply chain of skills, with the belief that mastering the minor details truly matter if you are to succeed in sales. 

Over my leadership career I have interviewed over 500 people, hired over 100, and spent close to that magic 10,000 hours on ‘the science of sales’. Doing so has enabled me to truly understand the widest span of knowledge possible in what is the most effective way to motivate sales people and deliver impact to a buying community. 

As a Fractional CRO, I am focussed on building sales organisations to recover from under performance or go through the stages of preparation for hypergrowth. My core focus here is finding & building:

  • Right people, right seat
  • Maturity of sales culture
  • Quality of sales leadership
  • Discipline in sales rigour
  • Professionalism in customer experience 

As a Doctoral researcher, I am focussed on understanding how enterprise software companies can prevent the presence and reduce the impact of unethical sales management. This explores the culture & sales subculture, the behaviours of leadership and the inherent capability of sales management. 

Resulting from this research will be 

  • A framework that an organisation can adopt to identify how their sales culture is enabling or harming their operation
  • How their sales leadership need to operate in order to deliver a climate within which their sales team can function effectively 
  • The inherent skills and capabilities a manager should possess in order to perform the basic functions of their role
