Weekly Alluviance #90: The Modern-Day Go-Getter’s Guide to Self-Leadership
Your weekly dose of Alluviance!
"The times they are a-changing."
It was true when Bob Dylan wrote that in the 60's, and it's absolutely true now when we look what it means to be a sales leader and sales professional. And while we fully embrace that change at Alluviance, it means that there's still a lot to be figured out along the way.
Enter The Modern-Day Go-Getter’s Guide to Self-Leadership.
In the relentless world of sales, we're conditioned to chase targets, quotas, accolades. But in a landscape that's evolving faster than ever, the game has changed. The modern go-getter isn't just a high performer; they're a self-leader who navigates the complexities of today's world with inner mastery.
So, what does self-leadership look like for us -- the ambitious, the driven, the ones who refuse to settle? We going to answer that by looking back at previous editions of this newsletter for more detailed answers. Consider this as a best-of list from some of our previous writings that just happen to fit so nicely into our topic for this week.
The "Why" of Leadership -- When you step into your leadership, you are taking active control of your own life and shaping the world around you.
The Other Half of Sales Mastery -- By focusing on and improving your inner game, you raise your sales capabilities and ceiling for what is possible.
Community as a Secret Weapon -- The path of sales excellence can be a challenging and lonely journey if you try to go at it alone and having the right community can change everything.
Essence Led Leadership -- Essence Led Leadership is the ultimate form of leadership where we come from a place of true self-connection, where we drop into our hearts, and where we embody and source from our vision.
Leaders Go First -- Authenticity and integrity are a core part of what it means to lead self in this day and age, and if you want to lead others, you damn well better be doing the work yourself.
Sacred Time for Rest and Integration -- This one hit me hard recently, and I can't stress enough how important it is to rest and rejuvenate properly to be able to show up fully in all that we do.
Finding Your Flow -- Alignment in sales is your secret weapon and competitive advantage where every word and action feels natural, connected, and powerful.
Playing the Long Game -- In a world where people can be viewed as commodities and even the best are easily disposable, invest in yourself and make yourself resilient and unfvckwithable.
Embrace the Stuck -- Being stuck means that you see a vision for a better future and you're not quite there yet, which can be the exact catalyst needed for massive transformation.
Actually Give a Sh!t -- When you care about helping the prospect, your team and others from a place of authenticity, winning becomes inevitable.
Master Your Craft -- This is a direct call forward to you to change life being "just good" and turn it into something extraordinary.
The path of the modern go-getter isn't defined solely by external achievements but by the inner journey of self-mastery. When you lead yourself with intention, authenticity, and purpose, you don't just reach your goals. You redefine what's possible.
It's time to step off the treadmill of endless, unaligned hustle and step into the driver's seat of your own journey. Embrace self-leadership, and watch how it transforms not just your sales figures, but the quality of your life.
So, are you ready to lead?
The choice, as always, is yours.
