John explains how My Sales Coach uses assessments to build coaching plans with focus, structure, and evidence of progress and why the Objective Management Group (OMG) assessment stands out for sales performance. &amp;nbsp;   The episode finishes with practical guidance on how to position assessments in a way that builds trust, reduces anxiety, and helps salespeople see the value: better outcomes, faster - without overwhelm. &amp;nbsp;   What You\u2019ll Learn    Why assessment is the shortcut to meaningful development (without \u201cwasting time\u201d)   The difference between coaching with structure and coaching by guesswork   Why \u201cmore revenue\u201d isn\u2019t a straight line from \u201cbetter selling\u201d   How to use assessments to create coaching focus without overwhelming the rep   Why OMG is not a personality test or a skills matrix and why that matters   The two \u201cbelow the surface\u201d indicators that often unlock the biggest progress:    Need for Approval   Supportive Buy Cycle    How \u201cWill to Sell\u201d works (Desire, Commitment, Motivation) and why it can be uncomfortable - but useful   How to position assessment so it feels like support, not judgement   Why top performers still benefit from diagnostics (elite sport analogy)  &amp;nbsp;    If you\u2019re responsible for sales performance and want training\/coaching to land faster and stick longer- this episode is a must-listen. &amp;nbsp;   And if you\u2019re curious about using assessment to create more focused, personalised development, connect with John directly:-   &amp;nbsp;   &amp;nbsp;Connect with John  \u00b7&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; LinkedIn:  John Richardson:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/johnrichardson11\/  \u00b7&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Website: https:\/\/www.mysalescoach.com\/  \u00b7&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Email:  john@mysalescoach.com  &amp;nbsp;   Follow Fred:  https:\/\/linktr.ee\/fredcopestake   &amp;nbsp;   Watch this episode on YouTube: &amp;nbsp;https:\/\/youtu.be\/AvQrgeEAEwI &amp;nbsp;   &amp;nbsp;   Watch Fred\u2019s FREE YouTube Course: Sales Mastery for Engineers:  https:\/\/bit.ly\/Sales-Mastery-For-Engineers   &amp;nbsp;   Useful resources    Take the Collaborative Selling Scorecard  \u2013 free Check how well your sales approach fits today\u2019s buying environment  https:\/\/collaborativeselling.scoreapp.com\/  ","author_name":"Sales Today","author_url":"http:\/\/throughpartnering.libsyn.com\/website","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/39911495\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/197972765"}
