Struggling with growing sales? Then you might just need to get out of your own way... here's how with Kristie Jones from Sales Acceleration Group

Understanding oneself and the target audience is crucial for leadership and sales success. Kristie Jones emphasizes the importance of self-awareness in reaching the next level in one's career and life. This applies to both leadership and sales. Just as selling to the wrong persona can harm one's ability to succeed, not understanding one's own strengths, weaknesses, and goals can hinder success as a leader or salesperson.

Kristie suggests that sales leaders should ask themselves a question to have a greater impact on their team. By reflecting on their own abilities and aligning them with the needs and preferences of their team, sales leaders can effectively motivate and guide their team members.

Additionally, the episode highlights the importance of personal development and taking ownership of one's growth. Kristie mentions that sales representatives should not leave their personal development to chance or rely solely on their leaders. Instead, they should actively seek opportunities to learn and improve their skills. This aligns with the idea that understanding oneself includes recognizing areas for growth and taking action to develop those areas.
