What happens when your sales team is operating on instinct while leadership is planning for the long haul? In this episode, Meghan Lynch talks with DeAnn Petersson, founder of Sunburst Sales Innovation and author of The SunBurst Effect, about one of the biggest growth challenges in mid-market companies: the disconnect between strategy and execution. With 30 years of commercial leadership experience across the food, beverage, and ingredients industries, DeAnn explains what it takes to build a go-to-market system that sales teams can actually use, and why legacy-driven businesses often get stuck defending what they’ve built instead of building what comes next.
