Why Sales Keeps Missing the Strategy Memo
Episode 15
Thursday, 27 November, 2025
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.Key Topics DiscussedWhy sales strategy often gets left out of leadership planning and how to fix itHow to recognize when your sales team is reacting instead of advancingWhy internal segmentation can solve legacy customer challengesThe hidden costs of compensation structures that reward the wrong behaviorsHow to reframe CRM as a strategic tool, not just a trackerA single diagnostic question leaders can ask to assess alignment gapsConnect with DeAnn Petersson on LinkedInBuilding Unbreakable Brands is hosted by Meghan LynchProduced by Six-Point Strategy
