The best sales managers must understand the five roles of a sales leader – a manager, a mentor, a counselor, a trainer, and a coach – and know when to embody each role.
Chevy Chase, MD (PRWEB) August 23, 2013
TeamVisibility, a sales coaching automation platform, has selected Gary Milwit as a Sales Coaching Partner, based on his leadership and success as a sales coach at Stone Street Capital, where he serves as SVP of Sales. Milwit will also be a guest speaker at a webinar TeamVisibility is hosting with Blue Pacific Sales Training on Thursday, August 29th.
TeamVisibility CEO Carmen Facciobene reports, “I met Gary earlier this year at an inside sales conference, and I continue to be impressed by the leadership he demonstrates in the sales industry and every day on his own team.” Milwit’s leadership has also been recognized by the American Association of Inside Sales Professionals (AA-ISP), who recognized Milwit for Excellence in Execution in 2012 and named him Executive of the Year in 2013.
Milwit credits his success as a sales leader to his background in athletic coaching: “As a high school football coach, I had to know how to motivate each kid on my team. Each one was different. Now as a sales coach, I have to do the same thing. It’s all about establishing trust, knowing your team, and leading by example.”
As SVP of Sales at Stone Street capital, Milwit implements a rigorous sales coaching program that focuses on helping sales reps achieve their full potential and teaching sales managers the principles of effective leadership. Milwit explains, “The best sales managers must understand the five roles of a sales leader – a manager, a mentor, a counselor, a trainer, and a coach – and know when to embody each role.” Milwit’s coaching regimen emphasizes that sales managers must work individually with each rep to develop a customized improvement plan.
“Gary’s commitment to sales coaching makes him a great partner for TeamVisibility. We value his input,” says Facciobene. “Gary’s team has been using TeamVisibility’s new user interface, and we’re using their feedback and workflows to shape our product.”
TeamVisibility has also asked Milwit to be a guest speaker during their upcoming webinar with Blue Pacific Sales Training, “Mental Toughness: A New Coaching Method for the Sales Manager and Rep.” Milwit will be sharing how he’s created a high performing sales team with his coaching methods, using Blue Pacific Training and TeamVisibility as coaching and training tools.
Sales managers and reps can register for the webinar online, and TeamVisibility will also make a recording of the webinar available on their blog.
