Being an Ally to Women in Sales with Rob Stein (Salesforce) and Darrell Gehrt (Cvent)
This is episode 560. Tips for sales career success. Read the complete transcript on the Sales Game Changers Podcast website. ROB’S TIP: “Equality is a principle that we can never give up on. We have a great opportunity in our professional lives to make a big difference. My call to action for allies out there is, make someone feel supported. Give them a safe place to go and critically assure them that you have their back.” DARRELL’S TIP: “Engage. If you’re a female and you’re looking for that advocacy, that allyship, be engaged. If you’re a man looking to help the women in your organization, engage. We have something we say, “Hey, meet the market where the market wants to be.” I think that’s equally true for employees. You have to meet employees where employees want to be. But you can’t take action unless you’re listening first, if you’re engaging first. If you do that, then you’re going to make progress.”
