Growth Dynamics Get Down

Hey everybody, Charlie Hauck, President, Founder, Lead Trainer at Growth Dynamics.

Symptoms:

As a newly hired sales manager for a medical equipment company, Devin inherited a large and under performing sales team. The team included the usual cast of characters: a diva who never took the blame for her results, a home run hitter who really struck out more than he connected, a Steady Eddie who was unspectacular but reliable, four or five people that seemed to confuse activity with productivity and a couple of truly high performers who annoyed everyone else with their consistency.

Hey everybody, Charlie Hauck, President, Founder of Growth Dynamics. Thanks for checking in for another Fast Tip Friday.

Symptoms:

Matt is looking at his calendar and doing some planning, knowing that many things he does look too much like random acts of mindless behavior. Looking back on past months, he feels like he was scrambling and playing catch up all the time instead of having that feeling that he had some deliberate control of his actions. He wants to get back that feeling of being on a roll, where it's like running downhill instead of uphill all the time.

Hey everybody, Charlie Hauck, President, Lead Trainer, and Founder of Growth Dynamics. It's another one of those Fast Tip Fridays for you.

Symptoms:

It was Thursday at 7 pm and Frieda was sitting on the sidelines of her daughter’s softball game with her head buried in her phone. This championship game had come out of nowhere as the team wasn’t very good but managed to keep winning. Frieda was thrilled for her daughter, but it couldn’t have come at a harder time for Frieda’s work schedule.

Story Time: We were up in Vermont a bit ago doing a little visiting, a little skiing, and one of the things I like to do when I visit my buddy Peter is I like to trade ideas or concepts that we share with our clients.

Symptoms:

Recently, nothing stung Darren more than when his wife pointed out that he failed yet again at his promised to be home for dinner. And, tonight he knew that he wouldn't make it to dinner again. His two kids were at the ages where they always seemed to be headed from one practice or another, and his wife Jessica was feeling often deserted when she asked Darren for help with all the driving around town. “Work/life balance” meant nothing more than disappointment to Darren as his boss just kept the pressure on by asking for more sales every month.

Okay, everybody. Charlie Hauck back again with another Fast Tip Friday.
