Judge: The Master Saboteur

Finds fault with
   Self
   Others
   Events and Circumstances

Source of most of our unhappiness, anxiety, self-
doubt, anger, disappointment, guilt, and shame
Triggers other Saboteurs


                                         21
Judge: fault finding with self, others, or circumstances.

Victim: focus on painful feelings as way of earning empathy and attention.

Pleaser: pleasing, flattering, rescuing others, to gain acceptance.

Avoider: procrastinate or avoid difficult tasks or conflicts, focus on the pleasant.

Stickler: need for perfection, order, and organization taken too far.

Restless: never at rest or content with what is, needing perpetual busyness.

Controller: anxiety-based need to control situations and bend others to own will.

Hyper-Achiever: dependent on achievement for self acceptance and self love.

Hyper-Rational: rational processing of everything including relationships.

Hyper-Vigilant: vigilance that can never rest, seeing danger in every corner.
What Do You Think?

Question: Based on the information thus far, I
believe:

  I DO have Saboteurs that cause significant harm to
  my effectiveness in selling & persuading.

  I DON’T have Saboteurs that cause significant harm
  to my effectiveness in selling & persuading.

  I don’t know yet.

To Weaken Your Saboteur

Identify your top 2 Saboteurs and debunk their self-
justifying lies

Notice their typical pattern of
thought/feeling/sensation so they can’t hide

When you catch them in action, label them and do
a 10-second PQ rep
  PQ Rep: Bring your attention as much as possible to
  any of your physical senses for 10 seconds

PQ Channel vs. Data Channel




                              33
3 PQ Principles of Selling



The PQ Channel is far more important to selling
than the Data Channel

The buyer is more likely to say “YES” if her PQ
Brain is activated

You need to shift yourself to the PQ Brain to help
the buyer do the same

Editor's Notes

  • #6 The world of work has changed. It’s mobile, social, and in the cloud. Yet many enterprises still rely on technology built for another age – technology that takes 50-year-old forms and automates them. Instead, we should be thinking about how to take advantage of social technologies to help us become more efficient and effective at work. People want feedback on how they are doing in the moment, so they can get better at what they do. This is particularly true of the generation of 90 million Millennials who have grown up with Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare, and other social apps. They are now running some of the fastest-growing, highest performing organizations in the world – and reaching positions of prominence in many others — and they want tools that will help them foster a feedback culture. Yet many enterprises still provide what passes for employee feedback once-a-year, during that stylized Kabuki dance known as the performance review. This process has become more about compliance than anything else. And it’s far too infrequent to have any real impact on employee performance.
  • #8 Rypple is based on the idea of using the latest social apps to help every manager become a better manager. So what constitutes a great manager? Recently, Google embarked on an internal study to answer this question. They found it came down to three key behaviors: 1) coaching people regularly 1:1 to help them achieve their goals; 2) recognizing them for doing great work; and 3) providing them with regular feedback on their performance (See: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/13/business/13hire.html?_r=1&adxnnl=1&pagewanted=all&adxnnlx=1329134671-WodUk4qJLsArBvyMSwY6rA Quest to Build a Better Boss) The question was how to help every manager do these things more often – and more effectively. We knew there was a thirst for this knowledge based on the millions of management books stocking the shelves of every airport bookstore.
