What Lessons From The Emergency Room Apply In Sales?

You can learn a lot from working on a trauma unit in a hospital.  A thriving sales operation requires many of the same skills. Identifying the real problem quickly, prioritising and triaging where attention is required and administering treatment where and when it is needed most. All whilst remaining calm and overriding the temptation to focus on who is shouting the loudest, and all with limited resources. Sarah Downs, former trauma nurse, has transitioned from A&E to sales leadership. She shares her insights on sales, and the parallels between the sales environment and the transferable skills she picked dealing with emergencies and traumas. A refreshingly fresh perspective offering some valuable insights sales leaders and salespeople can implement quickly and simply.
