The Value of Outcome-oriented Management Are you managing actions or outcomes? 🤔 Patrick Monnot 🐙, Founder & CEO of Pod, emphasizes the importance of focusing on results rather than micromanaging. He believes that aligning on objectives and trusting employees to make the right decisions leads to a more fulfilling work environment. "I don't really care how you do it. If you can get it done faster, then great," Patrick says. This approach fosters autonomy and creativity among team members. By shifting from monitoring every action to managing outcomes, leaders can create a culture of trust and empowerment. This not only boosts productivity but also enhances job satisfaction. What's your take on this leadership style? Have you experienced the benefits of outcome-focused management in your organization?

EP#39 Revenue Leaders Uncovered Podcast with Ryan Harris, Co-Founder & COO @ Alysio Watch on-demand via: https://lnkd.in/esFdGi2J Ryan Harris, the co-founder of Alysio, shared profound insights on effective people management, leadership, and maintaining a work-life balance in the recent webinar. His experiences as a leader and founder provide invaluable guidance for anyone navigating the start-up world. Here are the key highlights from his discussion: Significance of the Founding Team Ryan emphasized that the initial team of a company significantly dictates its future, highlighting the weight of early recruitment decisions. He believes that even non-co-founding employees must align with the founding team's vision and values to drive the company successfully. Understanding a Go od Day in Sales Alysio supports customers in defining a successful sales day. Ryan notes that this helps align everyday efforts with broader strategic goals. It provides a tangible benchmark for performance and aids in measuring growth. Building Leadership Skills According to Ryan, while many people may have the intelligence and grit, not all necessarily make good leaders. However, he strongly advocates that leadership skills can be developed over time. The potential leaders should be proactive and show their intent to take the lead; they will get noticed. Work-Life Balance Ryan underscores the importance of adopting a long-term perspective in managing a work-life balance. He uses the analogy of juggling - discerning between the non-negotiable aspects of life (glass balls that can’t drop) and those that can withstand occasional neglect (rubber balls that can bounce back). Value of an Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) Having a precise understanding of an ideal customer is crucial for a business's success, says Ryan. It aids in avoiding unproductive discussions that aren't aligned with the business goals, thus saving precious time and resources. Mindset for Success Ryan encourages individuals to focus on gaining expertise in their selected fields, thoroughly learning and understanding it before employment or entrepreneurship. This mindset, he suggests, should fortify their position as “experts,” offering a solid foundation for their business pursuits. Across these insights, Ryan Harris gives us a window into the thinking of a successful startup founder. He offers pragmatic advice on recruitment, sales strategy, leadership, maintaining work-life balance, and honing your customer strategies. Bottom line, in Ryan’s view, startup success is about valuing your journey of discovery, expressing the tenacity in performance management, and understanding that effective leadership can be cultivated over time. Truly, Ryan Harris paints the picture of a startup and its leadership as a blend of strategic foresight, people acuity, and a champion mindset. #podcast #revenue #leadership #sales #recruitment

Flexibility, Work Life Balance & Mental health are they actually important……. ? In reality they mean something different to each of us. But to me they are crucial. When I first started in recruitment, I never thought I would get the opportunity to control my schedule, choose my work location everyday and really integrate my work and life into one. I talk about this a ton on the revenue leaders uncovered podcast, but honestly for someone who has openly struggled with mental health, anxiety issues in the past…. regaining control and being the decider of how I manage my time, really has changed the quality of life. Now, I’m not saying I work less. Infact I work more than I have ever done…. However, I manage my time to ensure my life and work keep moving forward, if I need to take some time here, I will do more there. Just having that control, allows for both professional & personal goals to be consistently hit rather than sacrificing one or another. How do you manage your work and life? #podcast #leadership #sales #recruitment #entrepeneur

EP#38 of RLU with Adam Apps, CRO @ Cipher | A Prosegur company Watch on-demand via: https://lnkd.in/g23PZ7Cb Starting off, Adam highlighted what sets Cipher apart in the managed security service provider (MSSP) market, focusing not just on the company but the value it offers its clients. He stated, "What they do care about is the problems that we solve and the value that we bring." The CRO drew attention to Cipher's solidity, gained from its 25-year industry presence, and the backing of a multinational giant, which positions the company uniquely, untied from the customary VC or Private Equity obligations. Adam also delved into the topic of recruitment, underscoring the dominance of company culture in attracting the right candidates. "We have a very specific type of person that thrives here," he said, building a picture of an environment that favours entrepreneurial, autonomous individuals, accountable and imbued with soft skills and tenacity. Much emphasis was laid on clear expectations from the get-go. Cipher has also leveraged the power of branding in its journey so far, with a focus on revamping their website and investment in a brand image that righteously personifies the company. This all reflects in one of Adam's key quotes: "One of the first things we did actually, we rented a warehouse in Brooklyn, New York. We hired a production crew and we filmed the commercial. And we wanted to change the perception day 1." Transitioning from the entrepreneurial landscape to a broader sense of leadership, Adam delved into his personal journey, the significance of mentorship, and the pleasure derived from aiding others to navigate their careers. Expressing the importance of soft skills, Adam said, "The ideal a player is someone who performs well, but also has all of those soft skills and they give back and they share..." In discussing driving revenue, Adam revealed Cipher's strategic focus on brand building, creating awareness, and alignment with ideal partners. The company leverages OEM technologies and builds sustainable channel businesses by associating with MSPs to connect with their existing customer bases. Expressing the need to delve deeper in relationships, Adam shared, "We're now considering segmenting based on verticals to expand their success and reduce the cost of sale." Adam said the following quote "If you wanna be a leader, start leading. Don't wait. Just do it." Adam also stressed the importance of work-life balance and pointed out the importance of penciled-in personal time, advice important not just to leaders, but to everyone. #podcast #leadership #sales #mssp #recruitment
