Board of Directors
• Your Board of Directors need to be integrated into your work in building your mission-driven sales culture.
• They should participate in the process of developing your core organizational values.

![Page 23: Develop a Sales Culture for Your CDFI](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110113/540c14bd8d7f726a208b4850/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Senior Management• Senior leadership may also have
varied attitudes toward moving to mission-driven sales.
• Success = taking time for dialogue, so senior leaders have consensus and unanimity about direction and the core values on which you will base your CDFI’s decisions.
• With consensus and unanimity, senior managers will successfully convey, first the WHY of what you are working toward, and then, the HOW and the WHO.

Staff• Achieving organization-wide
integration includes helping each staff member understand that they are a member of the team and that they have a specific and important role to play on the team.
• Educating staff on the WHY and the HOW and the WHO allows for staff to build their understanding and better allow them to embrace the success.

Job Skills
• Job skills is a broad concept which goes beyond narrowly-construed work skills that an employee has to succeed at their job.
• It includes personality traits and talents.
• We know that the personality traits of your front-facing folks, the sales people, tend to be different from those of back-office operations folks, even though both may have strong job skills in accounting, for instance.

Great communications strategies
• Make sure that folks whose job responsibilities depend on each other have open channels of communication.
• This creates opportunities for growth in knowing the truth of other's work, their ability to do that work and the strength of their skills as well as the strength of their co-commitment to the core values of the organization.
• Expect and allow only direct conversation – direct communication. About challenging issues or problems that arise on any given day, and that need solutions.

Compensation Considerations
Integrating goals with compensation can be effective and should be carefully considered.
Variable compensation can help staff align their tactics with organizational goals.
Variable compensation can be a recruitment tool but is not a retention tool.
