Rilla Labs | Episode 9
This week’s episode of RILLA LABS – Sebastian Jimenez, Founder and CEO of RILLA sits down with Wyatt Smith CEO of Upsmith.
They discuss growing trends in the world of sales training – as well as Wyatt’s experiences as an educator for Teach for America and how that informs his process.
Wyatt’s Commentary
Despite advances in artificial intelligence, robot plumbers aren’t going to replace human beings in the skilled trades anytime soon.
Still, AI will make the best tradespeople 10x more productive. To achieve this, skilled tradespeople need positive reinforcement of sales training, and technology can reinforce winning behaviors.
In many ways, approaches for effective teaching with Teach For America work equally well coaching adult learners: Affirm positive actions, drive friendly competition, and create high performance culture.
Thanks to Sebastian Jimenez at Rilla for having me aboard their podcast to talk about ways both contractors and workers can win in the face of skilled labor shortages.
