3. No clear and measurable objective for the sales coaching session
Sales Managers and their teams can be more successful and improve their performance if they remember these three things:

Sales Leaders Have a Role in Retention
• Train sales managers 1st and sales reps 2nd • Sales managers should ask what sales reps
learned, what works for them, and how they’re using it
• Train both groups so there is no disconnect

Coaching Should Not Be a Secret
Sales leaders should share that they are using a coaching process.
Coaching is sharing and transferring knowledge and experience to people who don’t have it.

Sales Leaders Have a Dual Role
A Leader is someone who shows the way.
A sales leader shows the way and helps his/her salespeople to get there on their own.
Sales Leaders need to treat their team as customers, gaining insights into their needs and
helping them to be better salespeople.
