Training That Works
Training That Works is the podcast for sales leaders who are tired of programs that don't move the number. Host Rustin Schroeder sits down with directors, VPs, and Chief Learning Officers to unpack what actually drives performance — from onboarding and sales enablement to leadership development and coaching at scale.
Every episode is a real conversation with someone who has built and run training inside companies you know. No theory, no buzzwords, no recycled frameworks. Just the strategies, mistakes, and breakthroughs that separate training that checks a box from training that changes results.
