Carson V. Heady's Linkedin Analytics

As a longtime student of sales, my passion lies in helping others succeed and achieve their goals. Currently, I have the privilege of being part of Microsoft Tech for Social Impact, allowing me to leverage my relationships and resources for the greater good. I've written 4 books on sales and leadership and host or co-host 3 podcasts. My primary focuses at Microsoft revolve around supporting our valued nonprofit customers and partners. I ensure they have access to all the resources they deserve, empowering them to achieve their business objectives and drive meaningful outcomes. As a global sales trainer, I coach and mentor salespeople and sales leaders, equipping them with the skills and knowledge they need to excel in their roles and have co-written training that all sellers take. Throughout my journey with Microsoft, I've been recognized as the #1 social seller, generating over $1B in revenue by engaging customer executives with social methods and tools. Beyond my role at Microsoft, I extend my expertise as a strategic advisor to multiple companies. My dedication to sharing knowledge led me to write four best-selling books, which have resonated with professionals seeking valuable insights into sales and leadership. A firm believer in the power of communication and collaboration, I host a podcast and co-host two others—Connected Teamwork and Social Selling for Newbies, the latter ranking in the top 25% of all podcasts. These platforms allow me to connect with a broader audience and inspire others in their career journeys. Throughout my career, I have consistently exceeded goals and delivered exceptional results across various leadership roles, including call centers, retail multi-units, B2B, and direct sales. Beyond written publications, I have been featured in numerous sales publications, hosted radio shows, and have been interviewed on various platforms, including radio, podcasts, and TV. My passion for sharing knowledge has led me to create and administer the LinkedIn Career Advice Network (C.A.N.)
