Amal Ismail is a functional medicine practitioner. What is #functionalmedicine?

Functional Medicine is a systems biology–based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Each symptom or differential diagnosis may be one of many contributing to an individual’s illness.

Can you see the link between FM and functional selling? We only help the customer solve their problem by treating the causes. By uncovering the root causes of stress and inflammation FM practitioners get to solve "wicked problems" - multiple causes, multiple influence(r)s, changing context and priorities, timing, motivation, commitment, (in)consistency . The parallels between healthy living and healthy business become clear very quickly in this conversation.

When you listen to Amal's process she seeks to understand the interplay between complex physiological, psychological and environmental factors to understand the problems at their cause. These have been formed and compounded over many years. Her process starts by listening forensically to her patient. 

It takes a lot of time and effort to form a diagnosis, but instead of shifting the symptoms to another part of the body or stressing another system, you remove the source of the problem and the downstream symptoms stop happening.

If you've worked with me you'll know this is my philosophy towards selling and working with customers. I want to produce elegant, sustainable solutions without the negative unintended consequences.

In sales, if you start by looking for what you have in common, what is working, and looking for balance, working with your partners/customer/peers to find solutions instead of trying to gain dominance and control for you own personal advantage.
