Creating Confidence with Heather Monahan
Confidence Classic: Take The Risk & DARE To Fail! With Andrew Metz Sales Leader & VP Of Sales At Zywave

People will People have a freelance mentality, which I think is good.

It keeps leadership honest to go just like a salesperson goes, what's my unique value prop? I'm asking myself all the time, what's our unique value prop as a leadership team that people want to continue to work here and really comes down to showing that you care and there's incentives and comp and all that stuff. But it's really about an investment quality.

That's a challenge. It's been a challenge as I've moved through. It was easy with six people. It was harder with 20. And it's almost impossible with 100, at least on a weekly basis.
