This role will be responsible for designing and delivering comprehensive training programs focused on high-value capital equipment sales, complex multi-stakeholder selling, territory development, and competitive positioning.

This includes value props for clinical, administrative, economic and operational buyers. Understands what each of those groups of individuals care about and why. Understands how to deliver the value of Dexter to each of those types of titles.
• Develop and deliver curriculum modules focused on clinical champion development: how to identify potential champions, engage them effectively, equip them with the clinical and economic narrative for Dexter, and mobilize them to influence peers and decision-makers toward platform acquisition.
• Train ASMs and CSSs on strategies to build a coalition of Champion surgeons within a territory, ASC network, or IDN who advocate for the platform based on clinical outcomes, workflow efficiency, surgeon ergonomics, and economic value, thereby driving capital acquisition through clinical pull rather than pure commercial push.
• Coach ASMs and CSSs on structured, reproducible sales techniques and methodologies (e.g., SPIN Selling, Miller Heiman Strategic Selling, or equivalent) so they can consistently qualify opportunities, uncover and develop needs, build multi-stakeholder consensus, and advance high-value capital deals through a defined sales process.
• Work with newly hired ASM’s and CSS’s to develop a plan to attack their territory to efficiently and effectively identify which targets make the most sense to pursue and why, including prioritization of accounts based on potential for champion development and clinical coalition building.
• Be able to teach how to strategically position Distalmotion’s value against competitors and articulate why to our customers, including how clinical champions can amplify competitive differentiation through peer-to-peer influence and clinical advocacy.
• Coach teams on integrating clinical support and case coverage activities with the capital selling process so that clinical enthusiasm and champion advocacy convert into committed capital decisions and sustainable utilization.
• Required to provide talent assessment feedback to leadership.
