Decide on the need for a person in a job. Maybe it’s a replacement for someone who left, or maybe it’s a new position that I need for a project or for an expansion of a functional area. 2. Define the job . I’m not a personal fan of job descriptions, but they’re important for recruiting and for determining a fair level of pay. So I’ll usually put one together, sometimes working with someone in Human Resources (HR). In many cases, the job is similar to another existing job, and so the job definition and salary range are based on that other job. Once in a while, I’ll create a totally new position, and then it takes a bit more thought and effort to define the position and its salary level. 3. Get approval for the position if necessary (this depends on [continue reading…] { 2 comments } Failed First-Time Managers: 2 Case Studies by Harwell on March 19, 2013 I’ve promoted 20 or 30 people into their first manager jobs during my career. Two of those promotions were failures — they did so badly that I had to take them back out of the positions. Here’s what I learned from that experience. Background In both cases there was ample evidence that the people were ready for a promotion. Both people had performed well as project leaders where they provided direction to others. Both were respected by their peers and customers, and had good communication skills. Both people had worked for me for a few years, so I had a pretty good idea of what their strengths and weaknesses were. The First Failure The first failed manager was promoted into a software development manager position. She had shown good ideas as a project leader, and I expected her to dig right in when she had her own people reporting to her. But I didn’t recognize a problem she had with self-confidence and prioritization. As a project leader she had to make decisions, and she seemed to cope well with the decision-making process. But [continue reading…] { 0 comments } How to Sell to a CIO by Harwell on January 7, 2013 In 2006 I wrote an article explaining a recommended sales approach for selling to a CIO. The article has been available as a downloadable PDF file since that time, but I thought it might be a good idea to have the text of that article available directly on my blog as well. And after my last article on the Emperor’s New Clothes , I figured this is the right time to share the original 2006 article. If you’re in sales, then this is aimed directly at you. If you’re a CIO (or someone else in IT) being bothered by salespeople, then send your sales reps a link to this article so they’ll figure out how to meet your needs. Here’s the article: Chief Information Officers (CIOs) have responsibility for choosing the best information technology for use by their company, and then for implementing the technology and supporting it on an ongoing basis. Their job definition calls for them to pay attention to new technology appearing on the market so that they can determine whether use of the new technology will provide benefit to their company. I’ve known a lot of CIOs over the years, and they all have one thing in common: they’re very busy people. Most CIOs like to hear about new products and services as much as the next person, but because of their position they’re bombarded by salespeople day and night. It gets to the point where they’re afraid to go to industry meetings because they get attacked by salespeople; it’s like movie stars and paparazzi. I know some CIOs who carefully register for industry meetings using a less prestigious job title just so their name tag doesn’t identify them as a target. The reason for this CIO behavior is obvious: there’s a lot of money in technology sales, and CIOs are key decision-makers for most of those technology sales. If you can’t sell the CIO, then you’re not likely to sell a technology at all. And because there are so many more technology salespeople than CIOs, the CIOs are hopelessly outnumbered, and many of them become reclusive. This article is written for technology salespeople to help them sell to CIOs. I’m writing the article because someone needs to define the rules of engagement for such a sale. I want to protect CIOs from being badgered, and I figure that if I give you a better way to sell to CIOs then maybe you’ll be more likely to leave them alone when they’re out in public. Most of the badgering comes from bad sales technique, so here’s the right way to sell to CIOs. The Psychology of a CIO Let’s start by getting an understanding of the type of person who becomes a CIO. There are two types [continue reading…] { 0 comments } The “Emperor’s New Clothes” Trick and How to Deal with It by Harwell on December 11, 2012 As a child, I read the story “The Emperor’s New Clothes” by Hans Christian Andersen. The story is one of the earliest known accounts of a trick that technology salespeople use all of the time. Let me first recap the story, and then I’ll explain the trick and how to deal with it. The Plot of the Children’s Story According to the plot, a pretentious emperor always wants to be seen as superior to everyone else. Some con men convince him that they can make him a new set of clothes that are better than anything he has ever worn. The clothes are incredibly thin and luxurious, and so light that they feel like air. But the clothes have one interesting property: People who are unworthy can’t see them at all. So the con men get out their weaving equipment and go through the motions of making cloth. The emperor watches the early stages of manufacture, and notices that he can’t see the cloth. But he keeps his mouth shut because speaking out would reveal the emperor as unworthy. The con men continue with their charade, pretending to sew the invisible cloth together until they have an invisible set of clothes. The con men bring their fake clothes to the emperor in his bedroom. The emperor strips down, and the con men pantomime putting the clothes over the emperor’s head and fastening them in place. “Are they not as light as air like we promised?” they ask. The emperor, too proud to admit that he can’t see anything, agrees that they are definitely very light. The emperor gets in his open carriage for a trip through the city. The story of the emperor’s clothes has preceded the procession, so everyone watching the king figures they’re just unworthy because they can’t see anything. And no one watching wants to acknowledge this because then everyone would know that they’re unworthy. But then a small child watching the procession cries out, “The emperor has no clothes!” Suddenly everyone, including the emperor, realizes that they’ve been conned. The Modern Trick The modern equivalent of this trick is to sell a technology that doesn’t make sense by convincing you that the technology is so advanced that you can’t understand it. The sales people start with a simple yet far-reaching premise, something like “we’ve invented a revolutionary new database technology that [continue reading…] { 0 comments } Emergencies Aren’t Strategy by Harwell on November 27, 2012 In a previous article I talked about how there are two reasons for strategy: focus and communication. It seems like companies have a lot of trouble with focus. Particularly in large companies, there’s a tendency to “focus” on everything at once: accomplishing all of your objectives, expanding in all of your markets, increasing revenues in all product lines at the same time that you’re cutting costs in all departments. And of course this defeats the entire idea of focus, which is to concentrate your resources on the few things that are the most important. If everything is important, then nothing is really ...
