Senior Manager Sales Operations & Enablement YouGov Deutschland

Hi there, nice to meet you! My name's Philipp and I am here to help - if you want me to! I am still not sure I know what I want to be when I am a grown-up - but becoming a coach and enabler on my way certainly led in the right direction. So if you are looking for a guide, why not talk…. I am currently responsible for Sales Operations & Enablement at YouGov Germany. As part of this exciting task, I take care of most strategic and tactical in-house sales topics: targeting, planning, reporting, analytics and so on. My second leg is enablement, training, and coaching for both the sales workforce and management. Besides that, I take care of in-house coaching and training. Communication, conflict, and career are my main topics here. To support these tasks, I hold a business diploma and a plethora of certifications in systemic coaching, training, change management, and numerous sales approaches. Before YouGov – well – I did my homework to become a well-trained salesperson, entrepreneur, and world-class napper! My sales career includes all the necessary steps to make me feel comfortable in almost all sales situations. I started in telesales and worked my way up to account director before leaving for the “sales back office”. From cold approaching accounts to strategic 5-year planning - I did it all and therefore have an opinion on everything. Not all these opinions need to be right, but I will sell them to you that way, anyway ;) So - what can you expect from me? Many questions, ideas, criticism, empowerment, and many different points of view on your topics:
