Now in July 2020 as Sales leaders get ready to send their people back into the field there is a whole minefield of challenges and pitfalls ahead.

The lockdown is over - Whats the employment law for sales leaders ?

This week on the Hard Times podcast we interview Adam Pavey our 'resident employment lawyer' from Poole Alcock. It was a truly fascinating show where we talked about the some of the key issues facing employers in the 'new world' as it is today.

How do we stay on the right side of legislation? With employment lawyer Adam Pavey

Jonathan Graham and Michael Price are experts on hiring the right sales person. Despite it being one of the most important purchase decisions you'll have to make, the process is being neglected. Job briefs have become lazy. The recruitment industry perpetuates this laziness by hiring kids on phones who search LinkedIn for keywords. But the reality is, successful sales hiring takes a bit of thinking and a little bit of work. Learn how to 10X your candidate pool, 10X your choice, and therefore 10X your leverage as a hiring manager. Get in touch: https://www.linkedin.com/company/inward-revenue-consulting/
