Turn Coaching
Into a Consistent Management Rhythm.

Coaching Plays help sales managers build the habits, tools, and cadence they need to coach sellers more consistently — built around your sales process, team routines, manager responsibilities, and the behaviors sellers need to practice.

The Challenge

Managers want to coach, but the rhythm isn't always clear.

Most sales managers know coaching matters. The harder part is knowing what to coach, when to coach it, and how to make it part of the team's normal operating rhythm. Without a clear structure, coaching can become reactive, inconsistent, or focused only on numbers. Coaching Plays give managers a practical way to coach behaviors, reinforce skills, and support better execution in the field.

!

Coaching gets crowded out

Managers are busy, and coaching often gets pushed behind urgent tasks, meetings, and pipeline pressure.

!

Coaching focuses on numbers, not behaviors

Managers may know where performance is off, but they need a clearer way to coach the actions that drive improvement.

!

Teams lack a consistent cadence

Without shared routines, coaching quality can vary from manager to manager.

The Journey

How the experience works

Phase 01

Managers establish expectations for the experience and connect the Coaching Play to existing tools, team rhythms, and manager responsibilities.

Build Core Coaching Skills

Managers practice foundational skills — trust-building, accountability, questioning, listening, feedback, and coaching models.

Phase 03

Coach to the Sales Process

Managers connect coaching conversations to the sales process, seller behaviors, and the moments where deals move forward or stall.

Phase 04

Practice Management Disciplines

Managers apply coaching skills to core routines: pipeline 1:1s, forecast conversations, ride-alongs, call-alongs, and learning huddles.

Phase 05

Apply in Real Work

Between sessions, managers practice with their sellers and bring real examples back to the cohort to discuss what worked and what can improve.

Phase 06

Create the Cadence

Managers build a repeatable coaching rhythm they can keep using after the engagement.
