Building and Sustaining Morale

6-32. Military historians describing great armies often focus on weapons and equipment, training, and the national cause. They may mention numbers or other factors to analyze, measure, and compare. Many historians place great emphasis on one critical factor that cannot be easily measured: morale.

6-33. Morale is the Army’s most important intangible human element. It is a measure of how people feel about themselves, their team, and their leaders. Units achieve high morale through effective leadership, shared effort, trust, and mutual respect. High morale results in a cohesive team striving to achieve common goals. Competent leaders know that morale holds the team together and sustains it during operations.

6-34. Leaders can boost morale in the face of extreme danger by providing their Soldiers the means and support for successful operations. Units with high morale are usually more effective in operations and respond to hardships and losses better. Not surprisingly, these units often conduct reunions and maintain close friendships for decades after they have served together.

SECRETS OF QUESTION BASED SELLING by TOM FREESE

Make sure you have listened to my interview with Tom Freese, Episode 126.

Chapter 13 Getting to the “Right Person”

Secret #123 “Not everyone can pull the trigger and make a decision, but lots of people can pull the plug on your opportunity.”

Types of Players

  • The Decision Maker
  • Influencers  – have the decision makers ear
  • Internal Champions – someone who wants your product or service offering so much that they are willing to go to bat for you
  • Coaches – give you valuable advice and direction about how best to proceed in the sale…ultimately, coaches want you to succeed in the sale, but they are not in a position to actively promote your proposal.
  • Informants _ provide you with valuable insight or information that will help you plan your next move – valuable information
  • Indifferents and Anti-Champions – Indifferent couldn’t care less.  Need to watch out for anti-champions…speak out against

Secret #125 The best way to neutralize an anti-champion is to get them to agree that both solutions are viable alternatives.

Secret #126 Anyone in an account who doesn’t understand the value of your product or service will ultimately vote against it.
