You Can't Feed an Ocean Through a Straw: The Case for Predictive Enablement
Sales enablement isn't failing because content is bad. It's failing because it's trying to feed an ocean of knowledge through a straw of rep attention. The fix is Predictive Enablement: the right drop, right before the call.

The System That Makes Your Best Reps Look Like Kindergarteners
Why enablement that can't diagnose creates fear, learned helplessness, and the illusion that your reps are the problem—plus the first step to fix it.

Why Top Sales Teams Will Never Be Automated (And How AI Multiplies Them Instead)
The AI world has split into two camps: augment or automate. But the debate itself is a trap. If you want AI to automate complex work, you need augmentation first—not because it's safer, but because that's how AI actually learns.

Why Training Can't Fix This (And What Can)
How learning velocity beats hiring velocity. Training hopes reps remember. Infrastructure enables them to execute. The gap between your best rep and everyone else isn't talent—it's accumulated pattern recognition.

The Invisible 11-Second Moment Behind Most Stalled Deals
Why cognitive overload silently kills revenue before the call even begins. Deals don't die in pipeline reviews—they die in 11-second moments when reps hear signals but don't process them.

2025 wasn't the year AI models got dramatically better. It was the year we learned how to use them properly. Models are increasingly commoditized—context prompts, retrieval, memory, reasoning, and tools became the real leverage.

The Forecast Was a Story
Why Most Sales Forecasts Are Stories, Not Data. Most CROs missed their forecast last quarter. Not because reps sandbagged. Not because deals slipped. Because 58% of 'committed' pipeline was missing clear buying signals from the customer.
