I was in your shoes…
Terrified taking on my first sales management position! I was moved across the country to a new state, placed as a first-time sales manager to a team of people I didn’t know, and without one iota of managerial training.
I’m Meghan Clarke. Eleven years later, that terrified first-time manager is a Vice President of Sales at a medical device company, published author, a first-time manager mentor, a certified professional coach, and a speaker.
