Pay Attention To:

  1. The importance of connecting to the people we work with as humans – and how humor can do that.
  2. Why our prospects are getting dehumanized when they are just an entry on a CRM list.
  3. Human connection allows people to own-up to their real challenges.
  4. Sales and stand-up are more closely aligned them people think and rely on paying attention and working the numbers.
  5. “If you bomb in stand up, you lose your dignity.  If you bomb in sales you lose your job.”
  6. Why this push for humanizing sales meets resistance when you get to the everyday work in a sales organization.

The Art of Conversation is Back in Business

Do you love a good conversation with a smart person who is doing interesting things?

It's fun. It's invigorating. And for me, I find my best personal insights come from hearing what the other person is working on.

I write and speak extensively about professional networking, and I think that most of us forget that all of our relationships are at their core...a collection of conversations.

So join me as I chat with my favorite authors, entrepreneurs, artists, salespeople, and executives to find out what they're working on and thinking about these days.

Whether it's their favorite craft beer or the lesson they learned while starting their business, it's always interesting and always entertaining. Grab a glass and join us!
