Chris McCann

Fifteen years leading sales teams.
Still figuring it out.

Consciousness. Leadership. The gap between them. Twice a month.

In my early twenties I managed Hooters restaurants. Eventually I was leading go-to-market for SaaS companies. Same job underneath: read the room, set the tone, try not to be the reason people dread Monday stand-ups.

I got good at the measurable stuff. Forecast calls, SKOs, quarterly reviews. What I didn't track was the energy. One Tuesday a rep closed the biggest deal in company history and the room felt dead. Numbers were right. Everything else was off. I realized the thing that was off was me.
