With Chancellor Rishi Sunak announcing a “brand new bonus” for employers hiring apprentices over the next six months we have our very own Andy Wiles (Apprenticeship Sales Director) joining Jack Smith on Friday's Sales Surgery.

Joining us was Felicitas Coulibaly; Head of Inside Sales at Temenos, Immanuel Boeker; Snr SDR at Okta and Jordan Lopez; External Sales at Secura Cloud.

Motivation is a funny thing, as one minute it can be sky high and the next it can dwindle; not only can it change a lot it can also change very quickly.

For Episode 13 I was joined by Dominic Burton; practising psychologist before joining Pareto. Also by Charlotte Balbier NLP practitioner and Business Mentor.

We discussed how we have had the chance to re-evaluate our goals and values, how we can keep on top of them and also how to focus on this and cut out the noise.

Great first insight into this and massively thankful to Dom and Charlotte for joining me!

In episode 11, we spoke to Jessica Hepburn about resilience, bravery and adventure activism.

At 34 she became one of the youngest women to run one of London’s biggest theatres - the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre - which she led for 10 years.  

Then after deciding to have a family, and undergoing 11 unsuccessful rounds of IVF life changed. She originally saw silence as her strength but then was incredibly brave to speak out about her plight.

She’s now one of the UK’s leading voices on fertility, author of two books, founder of the arts festival Fertility Fest (https://zurl.co/9TaC) and a regular public speaker and media commentator.   

In the past decade she has also ran the London Marathon, swam the English channel, and will be climbing Everest next year!

In Episode 3, we looked at managing our emotions - Lockdown was in full swing and more than ever it was important to discuss how we can be aware of how we are feeling and what we can do to manage these feelings.

We were joined by Pareto Alumni Lauren Cartigny; who after a successful career in Tech Sales is now a Conscious Leadership coach, an NLP Practitioner and ICF certified coach. Working with Leaders and their teams to access new insights and awareness about themselves to drive business results and wellbeing.

In particular in this webinar we discussed How to keep motivated when working from home? How to deal with the fear of the unknown?  How to deal with difficult emotions?

We hope you enjoy!

We discussed: What customers and prospects really want now and how to ensure you deliver, The three most important things you need to do every day and why, and Where the three sales teams are in every business and how to put them to work.

A thoroughly enjoyable and interactive discussion. If you ask me a great listen for leaders and aspiring Sales people alike!

For Episode 10 or as I have coined 'La Decima' we were joined by Dominic Monkhouse. We discussed how we can look for opportunity in what can seem like difficult situations, how we can focus on our customers using the Peak-end Rule and keeping teams motivated; creating a positive culture within your business.

Having started and grown 2 businesses through a recession, Dom founded and scaled two UK technology service firms to £30m in 5 years; Rackspace and Peer 1 Hosting. Globally he took Peer 1 from $90m to $200m.

We hope you enjoy this episode!
