The Business/Sales Development Playbook Has Changed.  
While sales and business development still revolve around the three P’s (Planning – Process – People) the arena in which we work has changed dramatically.  Yes, you still need to hunt, gather (info), plant and harvest, but the way you farm and harvest is different because challenges, erratic changes, opportunities, failures are the new reality.

Learning to adapt, innovate, build your 3Q Edge™ is critical to business/sales development and the engagement and retention of a healthy, empowered workforce. Client retention, development of new product/service lines, new strategic alliances, stronger communities of purpose depend upon your ability to optimize strengths while transforming challenges into 3Q Skills and solutions that can take you forward. Doing so means refusing to be daunted by what is, because you recognize that you have the ability to create, develop what can be.

3Q Edge™ Recap: A counter-intuitive and critical coaching/training/mentoring focus that has helped my clients USE strengths AND changes, challenges, even failures to optimize three critical areas:

Q1: IQ > Ideation, Focus, Strategic & Innovative Thought, Ability to Learn-Relearn | Intellectual Potential                                               

Q2: EQ > Emotional Intelligence, Self Awareness, Awareness of Others,
Relationship Management, Communication, Resiliency, Risk Tolerance | Emotional Potential


Q3: SQ > Values, Purpose, Integrity of Thought, Communication-Action | Intrinsic Motivators that drive Q1 & Q2 when the going gets tough!

The New Business Development And Sales Playbook Contains Three Important Steps That Align With 3Q:

1. Sustainability of Purpose:  A relationship that is right on the outside must be right on the inside first. Purpose = profit.  Purpose demands an alignment of authenticity, integrity,  values and objectives.  Who are YOU?  Who is YOUR company?  How do your value propositions align?  Sustainability of purpose demands alignment!

2.  The Right Goals/Commitment And Skills: A great sales person needs three things:  A goal/commitment to understand and meet the needs of others, and the skills development to make this commitment real. Business and sales development are not about YOU/YOUR company, rather they are about your clients, employees, colleagues,  prospects and constituents.  You can have the greatest product or service in the world, but if what you say, what your clients read does not open their ears, does not resonate with their heads and hearts, you will not get the engagement, traction and results you seek?  You can be the sharpest pencil in the pencil case, but what happens if you cannot develop engagement, collaboration with employees or colleagues?

3.  A 21st Century Definition of Business Development/Sales.
 Business and sales development are about creating value for clients, employees, prospects, prospective strategic alliances, partners and constituents by developing communities of purpose; communities of shared values and objectives that drive reach, resonance and results! Learning how to communicate effectively, turn conflict into connection, refocus yourself and others when you hit a rut or wall is critical…and all are important 3Q skills.


The writing is on the walls of our lives, workplaces and organizations:  Change is not the problem, it is the solution.
 Our ability to build resiliency, risk tolerance, adaptability while guarding the values and integrity that drive sustainability are the litmus test of a better present and future.   We can talk about change being difficult, we can deepen the neural pathway and make change impossible, or we can make a critical shift forward and embrace our ability to think, learn, communicate, collaborate, grow and LEAD forward.

Make the critical shift forward.  Is it time to get empowered by how YOU can optimize strengths while also using changes, challenges, stressors, even failures to build your 3Q Edge™?  Pie in the sky?  Think again.
  My commitment to taking The 3Q Edge™ and REACH™ to as many people and organizations as possible is based on a decade of research, practical client experience and a personal and career journey that has taken me through the trenches from the mountain of success to the bottom of the abyss and back again.  I champion 3Q because our ability to lead forward, our ability to develop new ways of thinking, communicating, collaborating and succeeding is linchpin for success; the linchpin for building ME to WE cultures, organizations, collaboration in an age of rapid change, challenges, volatility and opportunity.  Carpe diem, make the critical shift forward!
