At CRO2go - revenue as a service., we believe premium #GTM execution shouldn’t only be accessible to large enterprise companies with massive budgets. We build senior-level revenue strategy and execution systems with speed, precision, and quality-first thinking — at a fraction of the traditional cost. And we’re just getting started. That’s why we’re looking for a #Fractional #BDR to join us and help expand CRO2go across DACH and the Nordics. This is not a “dial 200 contacts a day” role. We’re looking for someone who wants to grow with us. Someone who wants to pioneer how modern Go-To-Market should operate, not as siloed departments, but as one integrated commercial system. Because that’s what we’re building: Fractional as a real business and delivery model. We close the Revenue Execution Gap. You’ll work in a high-pace, high-demanding environment — but also with high ownership, real autonomy, and a team that genuinely enjoys building together. And yes - also high fun. Promise 😊 Is that you? Have a look at the ad and reach out directly to me or Melanie J. Lennert-Anliker - the 2Ms of Revenue. #Job #BDR #RemoteJob https://lnkd.in/eEVNScAd 📩 melanie.tschugmall@cro2go.ch

Please join us in welcoming Richard Draves as Board President and Eva Schoenleitner as Vice President.

In addition to serving on the Board of Directors, they have held numerous volunteer leadership roles, and dedicated countless hours to committees, programs, and initiatives that help advance our mission. Their deep understanding of our community, combined with their passion for outdoor education, conservation, and volunteer leadership, makes them exceptionally well-positioned to help guide The Mountaineers into the future. We also want to extend our sincere gratitude to outgoing Board President Manisha P.

Volunteer leadership is at the heart of everything we do, and we are grateful for the leaders who step forward to serve our community. Thank you, Manisha, and congratulations to Rich and Eva as they begin this new chapter of leadership.

Eva Schoenleitner liked thisEva Schoenleitner liked thisA Senior Director turned down a $48K raise to stay. Six weeks later, she understood why they only valued her once she was leaving. She came to me ready to resign. Eight years in. Director title. Doing the work of two. She handed in her notice for a competitor role. Then the offers started. First a thank-you. Then a "let's talk." Then a number. Her words: "They're finally paying me what I'm worth. Maybe I should stay." My reply: "They didn't discover your worth. They discovered your replacement cost." A counter-offer is not recognition. It's a retention cost with a deadline. She declined it. Cleanly. No drama. The next day we rebuilt her search from scratch: A VP-level narrative that named the scope she'd been carrying for free A value story framed around board and CEO problems, not tasks A target list of companies that promote from outside, not stall from within Direct outreach that led with decisions she'd owned, not duties she'd held Within 9 weeks: Two final-stage VP processes One offer she didn't have to threaten to leave to get One charter built around her, not inherited from someone who quit Final package: A real VP title $61K more than the counter-offer she walked from A team she chose, not one she was handed A CEO who paid for her judgment up front Same resume. Same week she almost stayed. Different result. Leadership careers split into two groups: People who wait to be valued by the company that overlooked them People who go where they're valued before they ever have to ask You don't have to threaten to leave to be paid like you matter. You just have to stop auditioning for people who already saw you and chose not to.

Eva Schoenleitner liked thisEva Schoenleitner liked thisWhat a great honour and priviledge to serve my last working day at @Smartsheet at the London Summit. I would like to thank PwC for their sponsorship of the event and the great partnership built in the last year which was pioneered by Ben Saville, Kieran O. and Sylvia HAZOUME with great support from our one and only Eric C.. During my time at Smartsheet, I will look back at the strong team work at the EMEA leadership group - Ben Saville, Justin Dobson, Sarah Chatterton, Andrew McAllister, Jolene Woods, John Schmale, Anouska Partner, Max Zulauf, Kirsty Neville, Laxmin Asika and Tyrone Vos. Of course the team is powered by our secret weapon, Sabrina Ancilleri who keeps us organised. It was great to have some time with Scott Torrey as we laid the foundation for growth and path for success. Last but not least, I would like to thank my team Sylvia HAZOUME, Martin Klauser, Samir Zerizar, Barbara Jezierska, Jacqueline Smith and our all star Enablement Manager, Eric C.. I wish the Smartsheet team well. As for me, I will post my next move in a few weeks but excited to be reuniting with a great friend who lives in my town and a life long Arsenal fan. Here is Mike signing off. Go Smartsheet!

Eva Schoenleitner liked thisEva Schoenleitner liked thisWenn Führungskräfte zu Unternehmer:innen werden, verändert sich mehr als die Eigentümerstruktur. Bei Management-Buy-outs übernehmen jene Menschen Verantwortung, die ein Unternehmen oft seit Jahren kennen & operativ führen. 🤝 Die Invest AG begleitet solche Transaktionen im Mittelstand als Finanzinvestor, Sparringspartner und Enabler. CEO Dr. Gernot Hofer beschreibt im SPIRIT-Interview, warum MBOs gerade in Nachfolgesituationen an Bedeutung gewinnen: weil sie bestehendes Know-how im Unternehmen halten, klare Eigentümerstrukturen schaffen und Managementteams die Chance geben, selbst unternehmerisch zu gestalten. Entscheidend ist dabei weit mehr als das Zahlenwerk. Hofer spricht zudem über Vertrauen im Team, persönliche Risikobereitschaft, faire Kaufpreise, Zielkonflikte zwischen Verkäufer:innen und Management sowie die Frage, warum ein gutes MBO-Team auch in angespannten Phasen zusammenhalten muss. 🎙 Für die Invest AG ist die Steiermark aus mehreren Gründen relevant: ➡️ Die Raiffeisen-Landesbank Steiermark zählt zu den Investoren, zugleich sieht Hofer in der Region einen stark verankerten Unternehmergeist und eine ausgeprägte Industrietradition. In der Vergangenheit war die Invest AG etwa bei Bauer Austria und bei Lorencic Bauservice an Bord. In diesem Jahr ist sie zusätzlich, gemeinsam mit der RLB Steiermark, bei Pankl Racing Systems eingestiegen. Das gesamte Interview finden Sie über den Link in den Kommentaren. 🔗

Eva Schoenleitner liked thisEva Schoenleitner liked thisToday, I had the privilege of representing Siemens at a convening of select business leaders at the White House in Washington, D.C. on the strategy and actions needed to accelerate US Reindustrialization. The conversation was urgent, substantive, and exactly the kind of dialogue this moment demands. A few things I shared: 💡 Siemens' deep commitment to the U.S. market, our workforce, and American industrial competitiveness. 💡 The transformative power of Physical AI — a reality already on the shop floor, and a lever which extends the benefits of automation & robotics also to the small and medium enterprises 💡 Why the partnership between government, industry, and workers is the only path to a stronger U.S. manufacturing sector. The policy environment is shifting. Capital is moving. And Siemens is proud to be at the table helping shape what comes next. https://lnkd.in/gBFm8BXZ #AmericanManufacturing #IndustrialAI #Siemens #Robotics #ManufacturingPolicy

Eva Schoenleitner liked thisEva Schoenleitner liked thisAfter more than four decades in the workforce—including 33 amazing years at Microsoft—I’ve decided to retire rather than continue perfecting the art of submitting job applications into the digital void and hoping to earn a coveted “Thank you for your interest” response. It’s been a great ride, and I’m grateful for the opportunities, mentors, colleagues, challenges, and friendships along the way. The hiring world has changed. Somewhere between AI screening tools, keyword optimization, automated workflows, and job postings with hundreds (or thousands) of applicants, I realized I was spending more time trying to get past algorithms than talking with people. That was a useful signal. So instead of chasing the next role, I’ve decided to embrace the next chapter. Going forward, I’ll be focusing on family, friends, travel, good coffee, and spending more time with our Sheltie, Juno, who has made it clear that my full-time job should be throwing tennis balls. Wishing all my friends, former colleagues, and business associates continued success! As for me, I’m off to enjoy life while my knees, memory, and warranty are still mostly intact.

I'll be diving into AI agent development and integration, an area that sits at the center of where Smartsheet's platform is headed. I'm grateful to my friends and family for their support throughout this journey. A huge shoutout to Dilip Jagadeesh for making this opportunity possible, Surya Teja Chittineni for believing in me and welcoming me onto the team, and Lauren Paup for making the recruitment process so smooth.
