“We can always accept a mistake, but never a lack of commitment.”
– Mr. John Q. Hammons
I love this quote. It captures the spirit of true leadership. A mistake may lead to a sale not being made, but sales leaders can live with this. Mistakes, painful as they can be, can become teachable moments, opportunities to improve, which a good leader will take advantage of.
A lack of commitment on the part of a sales person gives the leader nothing to work with. A lack of commitment means a lack of interest in getting better. For the sake of their business and their team, leaders simply cannot tolerate such a disposition.
