Fishes, looking for recommendations on growing business development and sales skills. Finding and growing pipelines, establishing marketing materials, closing sales, and similar for services. I have on the job experience within consulting but never any formal training or education. Entering a new role where I'll need to build organizational capabilities from scratch. Any recommendations on programs, certificates, courses, books, or other similar ideas would be greatly appreciated. TIA!
I really enjoyed "One fish, two fish, red fish, have this deck in my inbox by 8am or you're not getting a bonus this year"
The Defining Decade - Meg Jay
Just finished 10% Happier that was pretty interesting. Also, highly recommend classic philosophy (Plato, Aristotle, etc). Find meaning and you'll figure out what's important to you. Haha
Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
Please read the Defining Decade. I bought 10 copies and gift to close friends. It's still applicable even if you are not in your 20s
