“Our 12 sessions were an incredibly positive experience, and I’m walking away with plenty of great ideas to implement. I specifically valued your attention to the finer details, which confirmed my fundamentals are strong while sharpening my leadership edge. I also truly appreciated our down-to-earth conversations and the many laughs we had along the way. To top it off, I’m thrilled to share that I’ve been promoted to Senior SDR Manager!!”

Testimonials

Matt Sayce

Nexthink

“If you are a BDR aspiring to become a Leader, now or in the future, the Accelerate program should be a no-brainer. While ability as a BDR can be self-evident, the transition from high-performer to People Leader can't be underestimated. The program enabled me to approach my leadership, confident that I had done everything needed to plug the gaps that you can't learn as an IC, and that can only come from investing time in yourself to develop. Martin shares actionable tips, insights and experience that help to cultivate habits and traits of strong leadership. Many of which I was able to begin implementing while still taking the program, planting my flag in my business as the right choice to manage a high-performing team.”

BDR to Leader Accelerator

"The program enabled me to approach my leadership, confident that I had done everything needed to plug the gaps that you can't learn as an IC."

Matt was a BDR Team Lead when he started the program. His focus was on bridging the gap between high performance as a BDR and the soft and hard skills needed to step up into a BDR Manager position.

By the time he moved into management, he was ready.
