The Sales Apprentice 2011: Sales Training & Business Development ...

And for those who have been following? my Sales Apprentice for a few years you know that there?s always a week during the show when I am travelling in the evening and cannot get this done on time. Last year, my good friend Andy Smith guest stepped into the breach and wrote a superb piece but this year he has just moved to France so?

If you watch the Apprentice and you have thoughts, comments or advice from last night?s show then please have your say and I will use them here in a ?mash up? of your comments. I?ll add mine when I?ve watched it. You can either email me, use the contact form or comment as usual below. Here?s the first one?

Damn! I was looking forward to your views + stayed up late!

I think SirAlan (prefer that) was unfair in his treatment of Tom tonight, as Tom created his biscuit in ignorance of the decision (what decision???) to create an upmarket product.?? Once again, Melody was argumentative ? she?s clever, but sly, manipulative and self centered!

There?s definitely a lesson in the necessity to marry up the product appropriately with the packaging + promotion etc.? The concept of snap + share was a cracker + perhaps should have carried the day!

Hi Gavin

Last night?s Apprentice

A great example of how a lack of leadership often results in diminished productivity.
A great leader listens intently to his colleagues and advisors takes on their opinions considers, then makes a decision and sees it through.

The leader should not be led but lead, always with the belief that the decision is the right one. Last night was a great example of a leader being led the results were zero sales. Had she been a good leader, considered her own thoughts and the thoughts of those around her she may have had different results.

Confidence in your experience and wisdom gained from those around you will often get the right results when applied by a good leader.
