In todays world, sometimes the hardest sales I’m making are selling the internal team to get work done like you’ve just described.

Either motivating R&D to come up with cool solutions to problems, getting operations happy with volumes, or solving a business process for a customer.

Sure the good old days of “managing” workers is okay but in todays world if you are like-able than you’ll get so much further.

100%. Also, if they like you as a person, you're more likely to make the cut when times get tough. I also like your anecdote on expediting SDS submissions. All you had to do was reach out to the overworked person responsible for this task and work out the best path forward in a bad situation. This is an approach all of us could use.
