How to Drive Consensus and Lead Across Departments in Business

And when you see challenges in the business that are maybe outside of your domain, my job is to lead the sales organization, but if we have challenges with product or with customer success or with marketing, the way that you drive consensus, the way that you get everyone on board with that, is often where people move themselves out of a job where maybe they're winning in the game itself. You might be doing well against the target, but you're failing on the game within the game. And so I think that's probably the biggest lesson I've learned in my 6 years since leaving the big company.
