Although the importance of the sales manager role is universally recognized, there are obstacles that prevent organizations from optimizing this critical management group. This executive summary is unique in addressing those barriers and identifying the steps organizations can take to help sales managers become more effective—thereby improving their teams' selling expertise and driving sales results. The authors raise some thought-provoking questions targeted for both leaders and sales managers to help them recognize what they can do to begin to optimize this influential management team.

As Delta Point CEO Jerry Acuff explains, "Based on our experience as sales consultants working with the top selling organizations in world (in the life sciences industry), our belief at Delta Point is that more can be done and should be done to improve the effectiveness of sales managers. By any objective measure, first line sales managers represent a huge untapped resource that if it developed more effectively can and will make substantial contributions to the bottom line."
