Don’t Compare Yourself With Anyone Else

In working with sales leaders and their teams, I come across lots of different people, with many different behaviour and communication styles. What intrigues me though is the number of leaders and aspiring leaders who compare themselves to others, and often in an unhealthy way. They look at senior leaders or leaders who have more experience or who appear to have more ‘success’, and either wish they could be like them, or in some cases, hold them up as an example to which they could never step up to. This is sad, and can be dangerous. In today’s episode, the key message is never compare yourself with anyone else.
