What you’ll achieve
• Program Ownership: Design and own Asana's global sales manager development program—from new manager onboarding through ongoing leadership coaching and cohort-based learning.
• Career Architecture: Build and maintain a clear, transparent career framework for all sales roles, including leveling rubrics, competency models, and progression criteria.
• Strategic Collaboration: Partner with Sales Leadership to identify skill gaps, prioritize development needs, and build scalable solutions that work across regions and time zones.
• Content Innovation: Create and curate content—workshops, e-learning modules, manager guides, and 1:1 toolkits—that drive real behavior change rather than just knowledge transfer.
• Measurement Strategy: Define leading and lagging indicators for every program you own (from participant satisfaction and skill assessment scores to downstream metrics like promotion rates, manager effectiveness survey results, and rep ramp time).
• Feedback Loops: Build lightweight feedback mechanisms (pulse surveys, cohort check-ins, stakeholder interviews) and partner with People Analytics and Sales Operations to connect development program data to business performance data.
• Community Enablement: Run manager community programs (forums, peer coaching circles, brown bags) that build connection and shared practices across the global sales management community.
• Strategic Retrospectives: Establish a regular cadence of program reviews and communicate insights to senior leadership transparently, maintaining a living program roadmap that reflects what's working and what's being iterated on.
