You’re listening to Unsubscribe! Today, we talk with (formerly rising, now current) project manager Gordon Bray about his experiences in managing both a sales and sports team.

Well, it wasn’t today (you can tell by the fact that we reference the date, and how the Seattle Mariners were 2-0 at the time).

“For me, sports and SDR management it all culminates into establishing that trust in that initial communication, because if you’re not building a solid foundation…the boat might sink or the building might collapse.”
