What Is a Sales Playbook? Like a playbook in sports that plans for the most frequent and most important in-game situations, a sales playbook is a unique collection of sales scenarios, strategies, plans, tactics, and tools to help a sales team consistently win when the stakes are high.

Sure, most organizations are in a constant state of change and people must adapt to thrive, but research shows that most change efforts are more apt to fail than to succeed. That is why acknowledging failed change efforts from the past is a critical ingredient to combatting change fatigue at work.

2024 has tested every organization, and 2025 promises no less - the warning signs are everywhere. If you’re relying on superficial approaches to diversity, you might find yourself scrambling to catch up.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance.
