Chantel George on Seeing Opportunity Everywhere


Listen Later

Chantel George had a plan to go to law school. Then, she found out she was good at sales. Really good. In fact, she became one of the best sellers in the tech world. Chantel’s experience learning how to turn a ‘no’ into a ‘yes’, asking tough questions, and challenging the status quo convinced her she needed to start her own sales community. So in 2017, she started Sistas in Sales, the largest global organization for women of color in sales. In today’s episode, Chantel told us how she saw opportunities everywhere – even when they seemed out of reach or hard to spot. 


In this episode, Chantel shares: 

  • The earliest lessons she learned about entrepreneurship
  • Why she’s not afraid of having tough conversations 
  • The advice she got that made her a better manager 
  • Who would play her in a movie
