GRETCHEN'S ADVICE:  "Adopt the mindset of adapt or die. Our world is changing and it’s not going to slow down anytime soon. It’s for salespeople, it’s for sales managers, it’s for leaders of managers, it’s for leaders of companies. It’s not a, “I did it and I’ve got it figured out.” You have to have that mindset of adapt or die, which is from the movie, Moneyball, but is also an adaptation of Darwin’s theory. You have to have that mindset that it’s going to be constant change and you’ve got to adapt." MIKE'S ADVICE:  "Embrace change technology, being a student of sales is my passion. That is part of what makes a difference between a good sales manager and a great one, or sales leader, is really that love of the game of sales. That really resonates. If you do that, you’ll see a difference in your results."
