Jason Martin tells aspiring Regional Vice Presidents to start acting like one before getting the title. Show up for operational meetings, coordinate interviews, run trainings, and master the presentation slides and closing techniques. Prove you can do the job by doing it now.
What's your schedule? Meaning when are the op meetings? When can teammates invite people to the office for so that they can get interviews done, right? When are you available? Do you have a schedule? The next thing is you gotta be a team player, right? You gotta speak to your team every single day. You gotta set up the trainings. If you're a future RVP, when your RVP's not in town, can you run the meeting? Well, I wanna be an RVP. Can you run the meeting? If your RVP's not here, can you run the op night? Do you know the slides? Do you know how to close like he or she closes, right or wrong, right? Because you are the RVP, you just don't have the contract yet. Don't wait till you get the contract to start acting like you're the RVP. Right or wrong, right? So you gotta be a team player.
