QUOTES

Managing large vs small sales teams - Kevin: "There are a million challenges but when you have scale, one of the golden rules is to try to keep it simple and not overthink it. Especially when you have a lot of solutions to provide and you get excited about that. So I'd say simplicity will rule the day."

On mental health in sales - Kevin: "It is hard but not as hard as I thought it would be. It's amazing if you just shut up and open your ears a bit, young leaders migrating through the sales community would be surprised."
