Business Start Your Engines with 5 Flags to Enhance your Sales and Strategy
Why do so many companies struggle to grow—even when they have talented sales teams and visionary executives? On the next episode of
A New Direction, I, Coach Jay Izso, sit down with Wall Street Journal Best Selling Author
Scott Edinger to discuss his latest book, The Growth Leader. Scott’s research uncovers a costly disconnect between the C-Suite and the sales force—driven by the fact that business strategy and sales strategy often live in separate worlds. The result? Leaders obsess over quotas and transactions instead of delivering a powerful, customer-driven experience.
In
The Growth Leader, Scott shows that bridging this gap is not just possible—it’s essential. And it starts with what he calls The 5 Flags Start: Define Success, Embrace Your Power Play, Identify Your Customer, Create Value, and Execute. Each of these steps is a practical move any leader can take to transform how their organization thinks about growth, sales alignment, and customer engagement.
During this episode, Scott will break down each of these 5 Flags, revealing how they help leaders align their vision with real-world sales execution. You’ll hear why defining success goes far beyond revenue targets, how to identify your “power play” that differentiates you in the market, why knowing your customer is non-negotiable, and how creating true value leads to stronger, longer-lasting business relationships. And finally—how to stop talking about growth and start executing it.
If you’re an executive, entrepreneur, or sales leader who’s tired of missed targets, siloed thinking, and wasted potential, this is the episode you can’t afford to miss. Join us live Wednesday, August 13th at 5:30 pm Eastern, and discover how to align your strategy, empower your sales team, and lead your organization into sustainable, customer-focused growth.
