#114: Steven Rosen: Why Most Sales Managers Aren't Actually Coaching (And What They're Doing Instead)

Most sales managers think they don't have time to coach. Steven Rosen says that's not a time problem - it's a priority problem. Steven spent 25 years in pharmaceutical sales leadership before becoming one of North America's most-referenced sales management consultants. His book Focused makes a simple argument: the number one activity that drives sales performance is also the first thing that disappears when pressure hits. In this conversation with St John Craner, Steven breaks down why coaching keeps getting cancelled, why deal inspection and coaching are not the same thing, and what enforcement actually means for a sales leader who wants standards that hold. You'll learn: * Why coaching is always the first thing to drop under pressure - and why that's a priority problem, not a time problem * The difference between coaching the deal and coaching the person * The three things that drive performance and don't break when the quarter gets tight * The ask-vs-tell ratio and how to build self-coaching habits across your team * What enforcement actually means - and why it's not micromanagement * How to coach experienced reps who've outlasted six managers before you Connect with Steven on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevenrosen/]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

#113: David Brock Returns: Why a 15% Win Rate Should Terrify You (Not Satisfy You)

What separates a consistently great salesperson from a consistently mediocre one - when they work for the same company, sell the same product, and operate in the same market? Bestselling author David Brock returns to the show to answer exactly that. After writing the Sales Manager Survival Guide, David spent years trying to crack what was missing from the conversation around sales performance. The answer became his latest book, Good Enough, Good Enough - and it has nothing to do with your CRM, your tech stack, or your training programs. In this episode, David and St John unpack the mindsets and behaviours that actually drive sales excellence: caring, purpose, curiosity, accountability and discipline. David explains why a 15% win rate means you're losing 85% of the time, why organisations that hit their numbers are often the ones most blind to their own mediocrity, and why the soft stuff is the hardest stuff for managers to coach. You'll also hear how to recruit and interview for curiosity, the redirection question that kills excuses in coaching conversations, the story of the $20 billion company that was aiming too low, and why you're not too busy to learn - you're too busy because you're not learning.

#112: David Galbraith: The Ghost Mind Coach Behind NZ's Greatest Athletes on What Separates Phenomenal From Everyone Else

Before David Galbraith ever set foot in an elite sporting environment, he spent years inside New Zealand's criminal justice system - working with serious offenders, child abuse teams, and men trying to break multi-generational cycles of violence. That foundation, he says, is what separates everything he does today from almost anyone else in his field. David is a registered clinical psychologist and performance coach who has worked alongside some of New Zealand's greatest sporting names - from Lisa Carrington's Olympic campaigns to Rugby World Cup campaigns with the Brave Blossoms (Japan Rugby) and the Chiefs. He doesn't work in the spotlight. He works in the shadows. And in this conversation, he goes deep. For rural salespeople - people who know what it means to face pressure, rejection, and keep showing up when the conditions are against them - this episode is a masterclass in what actually separates the phenomenal from everyone else. It's not talent. It's not luck. According to David, it comes down to one word: maturity. 00:00 — Trailer 01:19 — Intro 02:17 — Working With Offenders 11:20 — The Draw to Psychology 15:10 — Farming & Gratitude 16:19 — Why People Never Change 1 19:45 — Overprotecting Our Kids 22:22 — Viktor Frankl on Maturity 25:37 — Elite Performance Secrets 2 33:48 — Sir Edmund Hillary's Courage 39:47 — Bad Habits Exposed 48:41 — What Great Coaches Do 54:53 — Find David Connect with David on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/drgalbraith/]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

#110: Jeff Bajorek: The AI Shift Separating Great Sales Managers From The Rest

Most sales training gets forgotten before the rep even gets back in the truck. Jeff Bajorek has spent his career figuring out why - and more importantly, what to do instead. Rather than arriving with a polished playbook and telling teams how it's going to be, Jeff listens first. He co-creates training from the inside out, built on what the best reps in the room are already doing well. The result? Curriculum that actually sticks, because the people taking it can see themselves succeeding in it. In this episode: * Why most sales training fails before it starts * The 3 non-negotiables for any rural sales rep's mindset * Why your team is your customer (and what that actually means) * The frontline manager squeeze - and how the best leaders handle it * Knowledge vs expertise: what AI changes for rural reps * How to build accountability that reps actually respect * The "Know Why You Win" framework and why self-awareness is your edge Connect with Jeff on ⁠⁠LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffbajorek/]⁠⁠.
