Who is it for?

Designed for sales people, sales managers and executives who need to operate in a highly productive state.

Why?

With ever increasing targets, sales people need to successfully navigate the highs and lows of the role. High performing sales people recognise the need to be resilient and to operate in an optimal state of productivity. Studies show that an executive operating at maximum productivity or ‘flow’ can be five times more productive (McKinsey Quarterly, 2013).
