Sales Manager Gives (Audio) Insider Perspective on Hiring (GE/Bayer/Abbott background)
I met Chris Norris 12 + years ago when I was hired as the bDNA business manager for Chiron Diagnostics. He was a sales trainer then (taught sales skills and product curriculum). When I walked into the training room, he said to me: Oh – I know you – I saw your resume – chemistry degree, MBA?
What a fantastic way to start a relationship! From there I worked with Chris (he and I were both regional sales manager for Chiron after that) and then when I started my own recruiting firm, Chris was one of my first customers! I have watched Chris work his magic at several organizations, increasing sales everywhere he goes (or as he puts it increasing shareholder wealth). I decided to interview a number of prominent sales managers with deep hiring skills and successes and record those interviews so I could share them with YOU. Naturally, I thought Chris should be one of my first interviews.
I wish I could have heard these different perspectives when I was just starting out as a rep (and interviewing) and then again when I was hiring my own team. This is just first in a series of these types of interviews. Listen and see if there is something that you can learn that will make the difference for you.
Here is the audio:
