“Don’t Hate Me Because I Make It Look Easy”
'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
As part of our work related to the design, development, and delivery of a global sales leadership training program, we started interviewing some of the top performing sales professionals within the client organization. Of the 7 interviews, 5 of the people interviewed were unhappy with their jobs and company.
The reason for their misery was they all felt colleagues in their own company ranging from other sales people to sales support and product engineering “hated” them for being successful and making it “look easy.”
