With nearly 40 years working in a variety of roles from administrative and financial operations to technology sales, consulting and implementation, I have learned a few things about what makes successful organizations function well, and especially, how to fuel enterprise growth and profitability.As a leader of administrative and financial teams, I learned people management fundamentals. Incredible mentors helped set my foundation for better understanding the inner workings of empowered teams, how to lead by example, instill accountability, to listen and encourage individuals/teams to achieve their goals. As a personal contributor and leader of sales teams, I have learned that adhering to a defined sales process, territory plan and execution will enable success. Defining required metrics and having a regular cadence for review is critical to success.These "learnings" have clearly supported my success in managing and working with teams of all sizes.I have also learned there is no one size fits all approach to success. Each deal, project, or relationship has its own unique variables, ROI components, success factors, and each must be structured in such a way to create its "own" path to achievement.I am a firm believer that the client is always right, until they are not.
