In addition to leading the Habits at Work team, Andrew Sykes is a Lecturer of Entrepreneurship at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management and a member of the Kellogg Sales Institute Executive Education Team, where he instructs the acclaimed course "Entrepreneurial Selling." This course has been recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the "Top Ten" courses in the United States.With a career spanning 30 years, Andrew has held roles as a salesperson, entrepreneur, speaker, and expert in behavior change. His professional journey commenced with the establishment of one of South Africa's largest healthcare consulting companies.He is also a co-author of the book "The 11th Habit," which distills the research conducted by the Behavioral Research and Applied Technology Laboratory (BRATLAB). This research focuses on identifying the habits that truly contribute to sustained high performance, competitive differentiation, trust building, and organizational growth, and offers guidance on how individuals can develop and practice these essential habits.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode of Selling From The Heart, Andrew Sykes discusses the importance of trust in sales and how to build trust in the first few minutes of a conversation. He shares his insights from years of research on trust and offers practical advice for sales professionals. Andrew emphasizes the need for salespeople to be committed to helping others make progress in their lives and to understand and meet their customers' expectations. He also challenges the common belief that trust takes time to build and explains how trust can be established in a matter of minutes. Andrew provides a framework for creating a strong first impression and highlights the power of genuine smiles and eye contact. He also discusses the role of apologies in trust-building and the importance of self-trust.KEY TAKEAWAYSTrust is something we give to others by vulnerably exposing ourselves to their potential deception or incompetence.Trustworthiness is assessed by others based on their experience of people like us in the past.The first few minutes of a conversation are crucial for building trust, and salespeople should focus on creating a strong first impression.Salespeople should introduce themselves by sharing one thing about their credible past and one thing that led them to choose their current profession.Apologies often break trust instead of restoring it, and salespeople should focus on acknowledging the impact of their actions and fixing it.People often lack self-trust and easily break promises to themselves, which can hinder their personal and professional growth.QUOTES"For me, selling from the heart means being committed to helping another human being make progress in their life.""Trust is something we give to other people. It's choosing to vulnerably expose ourselves to someone else's deception, incompetence, or lack of a track record.""Being trustworthy as assessed by someone else couldn't be more different because we assess trust based on false signals.""Trust is a generous thing to give, but being worthy of trust is assessed by someone else based on their experience of people like you in the past.""The feeling most people have when we're approaching them as salespeople is not unlike that feeling when you see three young adults with clipboards on the street.""Rather than saying, 'My name is Andrew, I'm the head of sales,' I encourage people to say one thing about their credible past and one thing that led them to choose their current profession.""Apologies usually break trust, not restore it. It's important to acknowledge the impact of your actions and focus on fixing it.""People often lack self-trust and easily sell themselves down the river, quitting on their dreams or promises to themselves.""The only way to unlock the greatness in us that hides behind our blind spots is to have generous people point to things in our potential that we don't see in ourselves."Learn more about Andrew Sykes: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewsykes1/Learn more about Darrell and Larry: Darrell's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/darrellamy/Larry's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/larrylevine1992/Website: https://www.sellingfromtheheart.net/Got a video about how you sell from the heart?

The Myth of Building Trust: "There's this disconnect between what we think is going on taking months to build trust. And what's actually happening, which is oftentimes people have seen us get out the elevator that don't like the look of us, or they know that we sales people because they did a little research on LinkedIn. And while we think we're building trust, we're actually clawing our way out of a trust hole into which we stepped or were put because we blew our first impression. and we didn't even know it happened." — Andrew Sykes 00:06:28 The Importance of Salespeople: "I think that without salespeople, nothing happens. Without good salespeople, the reputation of your company is in extraordinary jeopardy." — Andrew Sykes 00:20:00 The Importance of Company Culture and Brand: "Company culture and brand in the end is nothing more or less than the sum of the habits of the people that work for you... The only data I've got to judge your entire company on is how a salesperson treats me, how they speak to me, how they interact with me over time." — Andrew Sykes 00:22:48 Learn more about your ad choices.

If as a result of you standing in their pathway, they have to go around you in a different direction than they would have otherwise gone, but it happens to serve them.” - Andrew Sykes [21:13] “I think an SDR role is one of the hardest in the sales game because the job to be done is something that's few humans can do at all, can do well, which is to build trust that lasts through time in minutes.” - Andrew Sykes [32:21] “And being a smart sales person is not enough. It's both knowledge, all of knowledge, skill and the discipline to use the right skill at the right time over time, which is habits. So unless you're in the habit of doing these things don't expect a result, right?

But while sitting on his sofa watching the exploits of the cyclists at the Great Wall of China at the Beijing Olympics, he realised the error of his ways and resolved to put a bit more adventure into his life. Two years later, accompanied by his faithful companion Reggie (his bike) but only a rudimentary plan, Andrew set off for a trans-continental cycling adventure that would take him along the route of the Via Francigena and the Eurovelo 5 all the way from his home in southern England to Brindisi in the south of Italy.

Andrew is a professional speaker, the founder and CEO of Habits At Work, and the co-author of the 11th Habit. A book that shows how to design a company that makes it easy and natural for employees to prioritize and care for themselves, and perform at the highest level as a result. Andrew grew up in South Africa, but at a certain stage decided that what he was doing there was just not enough for him anymore. He eventually set his sights on the US. Andrew focuses on creating good habits and helping people become magnetic. I didn't fully realize what he meant when I originally heard it, but after talking to Andrew for over an hour, I understood what he means when he said magnetic. The way I perceive it is having people be drawn to you, and you do that in a few ways. One of the ways, which Andrew himself portrays so well, is just simply listening. Most people want to talk to be heard - which is fine - but if you actually listen to what people have to say, you will be able to be a better husband, wife, father, mother, CEO, or salesperson. Our ability to listen and receive honest feedback is a crucial part of the process. Andrew also said something that really stuck with me - we invent who we are. I never really thought of it in this way but through our actions and our daily conscious and nonconscious decisions and habits, we actively create the person that we become. Our habits create us. Andrew says that if we practice good habits, let's say in one particular arena, every day, day after day - we can eventually rise to the top 1% of that industry/category. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation, and I think Andrew has a lot of great insights into what makes us better. Better salespeople, better entrepreneurs, better CEOs, better fathers and mothers, and better partners. My Take - Invent yourself, you are your own best or worst invention. If you create good habits, you will see the results in the long run. We make many decisions each day, make sure some of those decisions serve you well in the process of creating a better you - not comparing yourself with others, but only with yourself.

  In this episode I interview Andrew Sykes of Habits at Work (www.habitsatwork.com and www.bratlab.com).  His company helps organizations of all kinds tap their greatest source of competitive advantage - their people.  Andrew and I talk about the pivotal habits that are essential for helping companies (and schools) foster the health, happiness, and security of all their employees.  Time flew during this interview.  Andrew had so many great things to share about how to develop habits to improve all aspects of your professional and personal life that we may need to do a part two.  You can reach Andrew by email at andrew@habitsatwork.com and on Twitter @sykesandrew.  Enjoy this interview with Andrew Sykes.
