CEO Led Sales - The new model to...

Andrew Phillips

CEO-Led Sales outlines The Right Model to revolutionise your sales process and dramatically improve your confidence in the predictability of your sales numbers. This has to start from the top with you, the CEO.
As the CEO of a sales organisation, how many times have you said to yourself:
"thank god our customers are buying because we're not selling"
"we had ten-times pipeline coverage, but we still missed our number?"
Or ... heard from your sales leads the following:
"the person who was going to sign off on our deal has gone on leave"
"this is a strategic deal - we must discount to win"
"they decided to do nothing?"
If these lines sound familiar, then your sales team is stuck in the past. They are struggling to keep pace
with the market and will continue to stumble into the future. That's not to say you won't make your
numbers on occasion, but you can be guaranteed your company won't be the clear leader in its market.
This creates distrust with your sales team and that uneasy feeling of not being sure you will meet your
targets.
Is there a better way?
After twenty years as a senior IT sales leader addressing this problem and demonstrating measurable
success across multiple organisations, Andrew Phillips knows there is.
CEO-Led Sales outlines The Right Model to revolutionise your sales process and dramatically improve
your confidence in the predictability of your sales numbers. This has to start from the top with you, the
CEO.
The process is a multi-year investment to transform your sales organisation. It's challenging, but the
results are consistent and the revenue reliable. Andrew Phillips invites you to take the next step and
discover the benefits of CEO-Led Sales.

Dark Space Enigmas - Dark Matter...

Dirk Fallon

The cosmic frontier has long captivated human imagination as it holds the mysteries of the universe in its vast expanses. From the earliest observations of the night sky, humanity has been drawn to the unknown depths beyond our planet, seeking to unravel the secrets of dark matter and the intricate evolution of galaxies. In this chapter, we explore the beginnings of our cosmic journey and the fundamental forces that shape the universe, setting the stage for a deeper understanding of the interplay between dark matter and galactic evolution.
The universe, in its infancy, was a turbulent and dynamic environment where matter and energy coalesced into the structures we observe today. In the early moments following the Big Bang, subtle fluctuations in density laid the groundwork for the formation of dark matter haloes, which in turn influenced the emergence of galaxies. These initial irregularities acted as seeds that grew over time through gravitational attraction, gradually giving rise to the complex web of cosmic structures that now stretches across the observable universe.
As we peer into the cosmic frontier, the concept of dark matter becomes central to our understanding of the universe’s architecture. Dark matter, an invisible substance that does not interact with light in the conventional manner, exerts gravitational forces that shape the evolution of galaxies. Although its exact composition remains elusive, its effects are evident in the rotational speeds of galaxies and the clustering of matter on cosmic scales. The study of these phenomena provides critical clues about the underlying nature of dark matter and the processes that govern the birth and evolution of galactic systems.
