DTRH Ep.20: What Your Boss Doesn't Tell You - Feat. Prateek Mathur
The million-dollar question... "What doesn't your boss tell you when you get promoted?" Oh yeah, that's right. There's a whole lot they don't tell you, and it becomes a fast-paced "sink or swim" situation where you better get your bearings quickly, or else you're in some real trouble! Learn what to expect to prepare for the unexpected.
Episode Summary
In today’s episode of Down The Rabbit Hole, your host, Rob Turley, Co-Founder & Co-CEO at White Rabbit Intel, delves deep into the mind of Prateek Mathur to give a peek under the hood of what your bosses don't tell you when you get a promotion in sales, along with how to manage up, down, and most importantly, sideways. Sideways meaning, cross-division management.
One of the key elements of discussion is that selling yourself and managing sellers are two completely different skill sets, along with the critical ability to thread management across several divisions to maintain a far more successful outcome. Doing this takes years of trial and error to get leadership right.
