India’s Manufacturing Rise — Leadership Will Define the Next Orbit India is fast emerging as the world’s next manufacturing capital — from aerospace to auto components, capital goods to precision engineering.

In a market influenced by AI and accelerated automation, we see a PE firm’s success rely on CXOs who can effectively lead digital transformation while maximizing human capital.

It's the essential balance of high-tech strategy… and high-touch leadership.   Read the article for more on why these traits are necessary for CXOs to lead effectively through all this change: https://lnkd.in/eJKHCGkY   #PrivateEquity #CXO #ExecutiveSearch #Leadership #TalentStrategy

Every major buyer I talk to says the same thing: “We want AI capability.” But what I see on the sell side is different: Founders racing toward M&A before their own tech leaders are aligned or incentivized. The problem is that when CTOs or engineering heads feel M&A threatens their relevance, they quietly resist. That resistance leaks value long before due diligence begins. Here’s how founders can prevent it: 1️⃣ Involve early. Get your technical leadership in the room when exploring strategic options, not after you’ve decided to sell. 2️⃣ Provide Assurance. Make sure the existing leadership knows they won't be displaced by the new team, as superior technical talent in a new area will be a threat. 3️⃣ Define shared upside. Align incentives so they see the transaction as career acceleration, not replacement. 4️⃣ Map strategic fit. Explain how the seller's technology stack or roadmap enhances and accelerates, rather than erases, the existing team’s work. If you’re exploring a process, start by aligning your internal tech leaders first. #AIIntegration #FounderReadiness #DealAdvisory

Old Habits, New Tools: The Future of Sales Leadership Sales leaders face a familiar challenge — balancing what’s always worked with the need to adapt faster than ever. As Spencer Johnson reminded us in Who Moved My Cheese?, those who resist change risk watching someone else eat their cheese. At Synopsix RIM, we’re helping Sales Leaders embrace that change through next-generation Intelligence Mapping — combining ethical AI, behavioral science, and narrative insight to unlock human potential. Our Sales-focused programs give leaders the clarity to make confident, data-informed decisions across hiring, onboarding, and performance development. The first 90 days of a Sales role can define long-term success. Imagine equipping leaders with the behavioral insight to onboard faster, engage deeper, and retain top talent longer. Because while old habits die hard — those who adapt first lead longest.

What happens when TECHNOLOGY evolves faster than your SALES LEADERSHIP? By 2030, AI and robotics will redefine medicine—but 66% of the workforce will be led by generations who’ve had little access to deep mentorship. The result? A world brimming with INNOVATION yet starving for WISDOM. When I first stepped into Sales Leadership, I made a ROOKIE mistake. ⚠️I thought building a great sales team meant hiring people I could “mold”—people younger than me, people who thought like me. But what I didn’t realize was that by hiring in my own image, I was limiting what was possible. I wasn’t creating a TEAM—I was creating an echo chamber. 💡True INNOVATION and SALES SUCCESS doesn’t come from SAMENESS. It comes from DIVERSITY—of thought, experience, and perspective. And yes, it can feel uncomfortable at first to lead someone older, more seasoned than you, or with a different approach. But that DISCOMFORT is where WISDOM enters. Leadership and top sales talent aren’t about AGE or TENURE—they’re about creating an environment of TRUST, CONNECTION, and MEANINGFUL collaboration and LEVERAGING it! The Sales Leaders who learn to harness that DIVERSITY of WISDOM today will shape the MedTech Sales breakthroughs of tomorrow. 👉 I explore this in my new article for CEO World: “Why MedTech Must Bridge the Leadership Gap Before 2030.” https://lnkd.in/emVznWFg #sellmore #salestips #toptalent #diversity #wisdom #ceoworld

At Sarral, we believe that true success begins with client advocacy — standing for our clients’ purpose, not just their projects. In an age of AI hype and FOMO, where every enterprise feels the pressure to adopt faster and automate deeper, Client Advocacy becomes our anchor. It means helping clients cut through the noise — to focus on what truly drives performance, resilience, and trust. Whether the play is offensive — unlocking growth, differentiation, or revenue lift through data and AI — or defensive — strengthening risk posture, compliance, and operational assurance — our role is to ensure every decision is made with clarity, context, and confidence. Our philosophy of client advocacy is anchored in two timeless leadership principles — servant leadership and persuasive leadership. Servant leadership keeps us humble and grounded, reminding us that leadership begins with service. Persuasive leadership gives us the courage to guide, influence, and help clients see new possibilities. “Servant leadership gives us heart; persuasive leadership gives us voice. When we blend both, advocacy becomes more than an exercise — it becomes our purpose.” At Sarral, Client Advocacy isn’t a strategy — it’s our culture. It’s how we stay true to our name — Sarral — meaning simplicity, honesty, and sincerity. #ClientAdvocacy #ServantLeadership #PersuasiveLeadership #PurposeDriven #AITransformation #DataStrategy #RiskManagement #RevenueGrowth #KeepItSarral

Most leaders think their sales team is fine — until it’s not.   I just got out of a meeting with my AI team this morning, and I could not be more excited about what’s coming.    Here’s what I know after working with hundreds of sales organizations: Owners and VPs don’t avoid inspecting their sales team because they don’t care. They avoid it because they hope things will hold. Hope that relationships will carry another quarter. Hope that experience will make up for lack of new skills. Hope that the market isn’t changing that fast.   But here’s the truth — hope isn’t a strategy. And the next 6 months are going to prove it.   Two-thirds of employees already worry about job security. Half of managers don’t believe they can lead AI-augmented teams. That’s not a tech problem — that’s a leadership problem.   At PMMI’s Annual Conference in Nashville next week, I’ll be showing what happens when AI stops being a concept and becomes your sales and management operating system.   Every one of our clients will soon have a Sales + Sales Management AI Roadmap — no more guessing on outcomes. No more “I think we’re doing fine.”   In my Keynote, I’ll share: The 3 critical mindsets you’ll need to hire for (completely different from what’s worked in the past). What a day in the life of a salesperson will look like in the not-too-distant future. And how you could lose your best client if you’re not prepared to act — now.   If you’ll be in Nashville, catch my Keynote. If you can’t make it, DM me — I’ll share the insight that’s already changing how manufacturers and distributors are protecting their future revenue.   #PMMI #Packaging #Manufacturing #AI #SalesLeadership #FutureOfWork #Sandler #NeubergerAndCompany
