So hopefully you have downloaded the book and thought about your integrity and made the decision to do what's RIGHT !! So lets now look at my first comment on working with the team and your boss.
Make sure your work stands out and you stand out from the crowd  , use your initiative  , become the go to guy, be the best at what you do always ! keep your eye on the ball , give ideas , be positive, try to see the best in every one and every situation ,never never be negative in an open meeting , if you fell strongly talk after in private.  No one likes a moaner or a complainer, be focused and consecrate on the job in hand. My son James Burke is a race driver he was told in the psychology of winning class that we never ever loose concentration  we just think about something else , so we must train our minds to stay on target !! stick to the knitting !!  Get the job done and be the best and be seen as the best.

"Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else".
Judy Garland

This is the start of a new sales blog by www.victorymanagement.co.uk

This is the start of a new sales blog by www.victorymanagement.co.uk as a way to help all the sales and account mangers who have made a personal internalised character decision  to make a difference and invest time in themselves.  As a Student of Covey , the late Great Sir John Harvey Jones, James Allen and of course Maslow  to mention just a few , I will endeavour to keep to the principles they so greatly teach & exhort.  I expect that work restraints will limit the numbers of blog entry’s, so stick with it as I plan ahead the blog entry’s.
