Our host today is Adam Richardson and on today’s episode, we are excited to welcome Niall Carey, Founder at Fractal Advisory. 

After 15+ years leading high-performing sales teams in organisations such as DocuSign and Salesforce, Niall has now transitioned into fractional leadership to help ambitious companies scale smarter and faster.

βœ… Drive predictable, sustainable revenue growth 
βœ… Coach and mentor emerging sales leaders 
βœ… Prepare organisations for expansion and growth 
 
Today, we focus in on aligning sales teams with the Company Mission and Vision and some of our key takeaways from the conversation were: 

 πŸ’‘ The disconnect between Vision and Action 

 πŸ’‘ Storytelling as a Leadership tool 

 πŸ’‘ Embedding the Company Vision in Sales Teams – and making it personal to them
