In 1990, IBM
had its most profitable year ever. By 1993, the computer
industry had changed so rapidly the company was on its way
to losing $16 billion and IBM was on a watch list for
extinction -- victimized by its own lumbering size, an
insular corporate culture, and the PC era IBM had itself
helped invent.
Then Lou Gerstner was brought in to run IBM. Almost everyone
watching the rapid demise of this American icon presumed
Gerstner had joined IBM to preside over its continued
dissolution into a confederation of autonomous business
units. This strategy, well underway when he arrived, would
have effectively eliminated the corporation that had
invented many of the industry's most important technologies. |

Forget
everything you've been taught about selling — forget the
hardsell, forget negotiation strategies, forget those
closing techniques. In The Inner Game of Selling, Ron
Willingham debunks the familiar myths about "sales skills,"
showing that those tired methods are too shallow and
manipulative to do anything but alienate potential customers
and drain you of energy and dignity.
Willingham, author of Integrity Service and CEO of Integrity
Systems, draws on decades of experience to open your eyes to
a whole new truth about selling: Your ability to sell is
more a question of who you are than of what you know.
Accordingly, why you sell is far more important than how you
sell. |
