Take Aways

Talent, systems engineering, playbooks, coaching development, and culture are the key elements of building an elite sales organization.

Repeatability and consistency are indicators of a well-functioning sales system.

The performance of the middle-class salespeople is a better measure of a sales leader's abilities than the performance of top performers.

Scorecards help eliminate cognitive biases and ensure consistent evaluation of candidates.

Mindset, skills, and specific knowledge are important criteria to consider in a scorecard.

Asking follow-up questions and digging deeper during interviews helps assess candidates' mindset and abilities.

Triangulating data from scorecards, references, and other sources is crucial for making informed hiring decisions.
