Becoming a top performer
What do you think makes a good sales person? According to Marcus Chan, the top 10 characteristics of a top sales performer are as follows:
- Goal oriented
- Ability to persevere
- Creative
- High emotional intelligence
- Self-starter
- Growth minded
- Compassionate
- Passionate
- Ownership mentality
- High coach-ability
These are certainly successful attributes and I would say that these can generally be applied to any career path. Esteemed scholars at Harvard and other prestigious educational institutions speak highly of these attributes within the workplace.
Whether an individual is stuck in a pattern of mid-range performance, or a high achiever experiencing some bumps, coaching will help them to look at the challenges they are facing and begin to work through them with greater knowledge, understanding and skill. This is a deep learning experience.
