In 2022, I stepped away from my comfort zone in industrial gases, an industry where I could rely on 14 years of amassed project knowledge to move to technology. I did it, not as a pivot, but to lever my enjoyment of winning as a team. At the time I was secretly feeling vulnerable, however I inherited a team who have reciprocated any knowledge I have given them a hundred-fold and with the support of the leadership team we are still on a path to success.Success doesn't just represent what they have achieved doubling the revenue outcome for each opportunity but in the opportunities it has created for them personally.It may seem strange to celebrate losing people, but there is now a consistent flow from the SDR pool into the Account Management and Sales Executive team. This will continue to be my main vision for success.It is that vision that drives me when I am coaching a new hire about how Servers.com helps CTOs who are worried about being trapped with rising costs in the public cloud. Or when I am supporting SDRs crafting their customer stories, stories they have personally amassed, as incredible as a CEO of a large digital enterprise coming over to them and saying "can you help me".To refill the SDR pool we are constantly looking for people with potential, drive and resilience. I tell every candidate the same thing "this is not the easiest job" and never sugar coat the expectations but I feel confident that every hire is given the same possibility of taking a step forward in their professional sales career.
