  Joachim: Why Many CROs Fail

  Aug 4, 202641 minS1

  Why do so many Chief Revenue Officers struggle to survive in their roles, and what does it actually take to build a high-performing sales culture that outlasts your tenure? In this episode of the Sales Transformers podcast, we sit down with Joachim Schreiner, CRO at ATOSS, to discuss his nearly three-decade journey from IT programmer to leading global revenue teams at companies like Salesforce, Symantec, and BMC. What You’ll Discover - Mastering the CRO Balancing Act : Why the most successful revenue leaders rely on a Chief of Staff to bridge the gap between big-picture passion and data-driven discipline. - Building a Culture of Empowerment : How to shift from a traditional management mindset to an entrepreneurial ecosystem where teams are enabled, empowered, and held accountable. - Simplifying for Success : Why limiting your organisation's focus to just three core goals is the secret to cutting through corporate complexity and driving true alignment. Building a meaningful business requires a balance of short-term survival instincts and long-term vision. By focusing on core values and remaining transparent with clients, you can create an organisation built to last for decades, not just until the next exit.

  Shifting from Product Pitch to Business Value

  Jul 21, 202641 minS1

  Why do so many sales teams default to pitching product features when they know they should be leading with business value? In this episode of the Sales Transformers podcast, we explore the all-too-common "knowing-doing gap" in sales. Drawing on our experience delivering billion-dollar turnarounds at global companies like HPE, we break down why sellers revert to comfortable habits under pressure and how leaders can successfully shift their teams from a transactional mindset to true value-based selling. What You’ll Discover - Grounding Your Team's Reality : Why you must objectively assess your sellers' current capabilities and strip away the noise to understand where your team truly stands. - Embedding "Where Does It Grip" Moments : How to equip your sellers with the right tools, like simplified business value calculators, that naturally open up value-led conversations with customers. - Creating a Culture of Accountability : Why shifting to value selling requires more than just a new compensation plan; it demands continuous, spoon-fed coaching and buy-in from the entire leadership team. If you are a sales leader struggling to get your team away from the product pitch and into the top-right quadrant of agreed customer value, this episode provides the practical frameworks you need to make that transformation stick.
