Course overview

What Is Sales Leadership?

Sales leadership means delivering results through other people’s selling rather than your own. The course prepares sales managers to set objectives and expectations, plan territories and forecasts, analyse performance data to decide where effort should go, and coach, motivate and hold representatives to account so the team as a whole hits its numbers.

Theory is blended with practical exercises, workshops and case studies: participants draft sales plans, examine pipelines and rehearse coaching conversations based on the markets sales managers in Belarus compete in.

Sales managers from organisations in Belarus learn to lift their whole team towards and beyond its targets, combining coaching, motivation and careful analysis of sales performance with sound customer relationship management, and exchange ideas and experiences with fellow sales leaders along the way.

Why it matters

Why Sales Leadership Matters in Belarus

Sales teams in Belarus sell into markets shaped by shifting forces and demanding customers. Managers who plan carefully, read their numbers and coach their people are the ones whose teams keep hitting target.

  • Competitive markets

    Buyers can choose between many suppliers, and the strength of the sales team frequently decides who wins.

  • The manager makes the team

    Sellers do their best work when goals are clear and coaching is regular.

  • Decisions on evidence

    Careful planning and forecasting give the business sales figures it can depend on.

  • Lasting customer trust

    Strong sales teams build the customer relationships organisations in Belarus rely on.

The Knowles leadership approach

From Insight to Impact

Participants work through a six-step cycle, from fixing the target to changing course as the numbers arrive, that sales managers can repeat every month or quarter.
