Robert has this unique way he connects over giving what he's talented at (painting) and we connect the docts on how that applies to sales. He has made unlikely connections with well know people over giving them paintings.The conversation explores the importance of human connection in sales, the role of mentorship in Robert's life, and how art can serve as a powerful medium for change. Robert shares his journey from being an artist focused on ocean conservation to painting influential figures who have impacted his life. We emphasizs the value of understanding others, the impact of giving back, and the transformative power of personal growth through connection and creativity.

Om Podcasten

I believe that all people want to be heard, seen, and understood. But how do we get people to hear, see, and understand us effectively? Salespeople train themselves on techniques to do this but there are people doing it well without the word sales showing up anywhere in their job title or job description. This podcast is designed to help us hone our human skills, understand subtle similarities between non-sales people and salespeople, and show how we can learn from both groups the next time we need to create change and sell by being human. You will learn from people throughout all walks of life. Nurses, coaches, janitors, event planners, HR executives, and architects. Just to name a few. We'll contrast them with trained sales people to show similarities and differences. There's an art to human connection and sales. We all do it differently and we can all learn from our every day human interactions. Please contact me and let me know who you see in your life selling by being human! I want to shine a light on them. alex.smith@docebo.com @asmith202 https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexcsmith/
