Mastering the Art of the Cold Call Leaders' advice

Mastering the Art of the Cold Call

Perhaps one of the most challenging elements of sales, cold calling is a notoriously difficult place to find success—that is, until you've found a practice that consistently and sustainably works for you. And mastering the art of the cold call can be a career-long process (if one even is able to master it at all). "In my honest opinion," Alice Wheaton, business development coach and profitability catalyst says, "only about 4 or 5% of salespeople are elite performers."

Take, for example, the Time Magazine article from January that suggested "2023 could finally be the year of the 4-day workweek." And certainly, this strategy has taken off this year in an attempt to reduce rates of burnout—an article by Josh Bersin for Harvard Business Review reports that the number of companies practicing the 4-day work week has "tripled in the last few years." Nevertheless, it seems as though many still…

The Top Three Ways to Improve Your Business Strategy

As recent article from Harvard Business Review by Graham Kenny reveals, countless companies fall into one or more of the following traps when executing business strategies: 1) letting too many people weigh in, 2) planning activity without concrete actions, and 3) not establishing means for remaining accountable for execution. And as Kenny suggests, these traps are common and easy to fall into—so easy, in fact, you may not even recognize them until further reflection. So, how can you both acknowledge these traps and therefore improve your business strategy? It all starts with recognizing each of these traps and their root…

Beyond the Basics: How Today’s Recruiters Are Winning Top Talent

10 April 2025
Hiring has never been more complex—or more critical. For recruiters focused on winning top talent, the pressure to move quickly, compete effectively, and avoid costly missteps is real.

Why the Best Candidates Are Ignored (And How to Fix It)

13 March 2025
According to a report by Jobscan, 75% of resumes are never seen by a human because keyword-based ATS systems filter them out before reaching hiring managers. Many businesses rely on Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to streamline their hiring process. However, these systems often prioritize keywords over actual qualifications, leading to missed opportunities for top talent. While ATS platforms were designed to make recruitment more efficient, they frequently end up eliminating qualified candidates who don’t fit rigid keyword criteria. The Problem: Why Keyword-Based ATS Systems Hurt Your Business Most ATS platforms scan resumes for pre-set keywords, automatically rejecting those that don’t…
