SUMMARY:Executive Forum: What’s Slowing Down Your Deals—And How Are You Fixing It?
LOCATION:Zoom meeting
DESCRIPTION:Remove Friction Without Sacrificing Deal Quality\nMidyear is a perfect time to step back and ask: Why do deals stall?\nIn this session, we’ll dig into where friction is showing up in your sales process and what leaders are doing to get momentum back—without sacrificing deal quality or long-term value. Whether it’s misalignment, confusion, too many steps, or too little urgency, this is a space to unpack what’s really getting in the way—and how teams are clearing the path forward.\nDiscussion Prompts to Reflect on Before the Session:\n\n\nWhat’s the most common reason your deals stall?\n\n\nWhat part of your sales process feels clunky or outdated?\n\n\nWhat steps have you taken to reduce friction or simplify the buying experience?\n\n\nAre you changing how you qualify or advance deals?\n\n\nHow do you spot a deal that's quietly going sideways?\n\n\n\nHow to Get the Most From This Forum\nThe Executive Forum is designed to be a collaborative, high-trust environment—where every member brings something to the conversation and leaves with new ideas, new questions, and new connections.\nHere’s how to prepare and participate:\nCome Ready to Share\nThis session centers on your experience, not a lecture. Please take a few minutes to reflect on the discussion prompts above in advance, and be ready to contribute your perspective.\nFull Participation Matters\nThis isn’t a passive webinar. To keep the conversation meaningful and interactive, we ask that members join with cameras on and mics unmuted. If you're not able to participate actively that day, we recommend skipping the session so others can fully engage in smaller groups.\nExpect Breakouts\nYou’ll have the opportunity to join small-group breakouts once or twice during the hour. These are designed for deeper discussion, sharper insights, and stronger peer connections.\nConnect Beyond the Zoom\nWe encourage you to trade contact info, connect on LinkedIn, and build real working relationships with the peers you meet here. This space is a jumping-off point for ongoing peer support.\nSend Us Your Hot Take\nHave a strong opinion or risky question on this month’s topic? Members will receive a series calendar invite for the year and can send their hot take or question for each month in advance. We’ll share as many as we can (anonymously unless you choose to claim it) to spark group discussion. Your perspective might be just what someone else needs to hear.\nImportant Note On Confidentiality\nEmblaze Executive Forum is:\n\n\nLive only – Never recorded, never transcribed. You have to be in the Zoom room to get the value.\n\n\nOff the record – No device recording permitted. Our facilitator will remove automatic recording devices out of respect for the group.\n\n\nNot a Member Yet?\nExecutive Forum is available to all current Emblaze members. If you’re not a member but want to join this session and others like it, learn more about membership here.
