Whether it’s Kevin’s experience as a Major in the Indian Army or Prashant’s motivation to wake up early in the morning for a run, discipline is a way of life for both of our speakers.

This has also helped their sales teams improve their performance and increase their productivity.
Key Discussion Points:

- Leading by example: Becoming a better sales leader
- Leaving no man behind: Being empathetic towards your team and the prospect
- Sales as a team play: Using your strengths towards a collective goal
