Steve Blum (CRO at Autodesk) joined Scott Britton and I on the Business Is Human podcast. Here are some key takeaways from the conversation:
Having a clear vision of the desired end result allows you to sell the mission to the people around you.
People buy-in when they understand the why.

Top professional athletes spend the majority of their time practicing and honing their craft. There isn’t enough practice in high-tech sales.
Leaders must focus on creating moments of impact (shared experiences that will always be remembered).
