Amazing leadership. You have huge potential to impact the future of the product and the department.

Thank you for the feedback on your experience in the Enterprise Sales role. Improving earning potential and career growth for each individual is always a priority for leadership and should manifest sales initiatives to increase transaction velocity and average sales order, as well as consistent meetings with your manager on opportunities for self-development and resources within the company to leverage. If this is inconsistent with your experience in the role, I encourage you to speak with your manager or group director. Thank you for your contribution and feedback.
