RVP, Sales @ Bullhorn - I talk about creating systems for sellers to scale your impact, not your hours

3 years ago, I was drowning...

As an RVP at a fast-growing tech company, my life had become an endless stream of:

• "Urgent" emails
• Back-to-back meetings
• And constant fire-fighting

Waking up early and working late into the night.

My phone was always buzzing with notifications.

To make matters worse, it was taking a toll on my family.

The breaking point:

Missing my son's jujitsu belt test.

Something I'd promised I wouldn't do.

That night, seeing the disappointment in his eyes, I knew something had to change.

I spent the next year obsessively learning, developing & testing different productivity systems that would allow me to:

• Still perform at a high level
• Stop feeling perpetually overwhelmed
• End working nights/weekends just to keep up

I started creating what I called "mini-systems"

Small changes that had a compounding effect.

What began as a quest to regain control of my calendar...

Evolved into an operating system that helped me recover 10+ hours every week.

More importantly, spend more time w/ family. 

I've started documenting my learnings & "mini-systems" and now share them with others through my content and weekly newsletter The Systematic Sales Leader.

My goal is to help as many sales leaders as possible avoid the same burnout I and so many others experience through tested and proven systems.

Do you understand what “enablement” truly means and the value it can bring?

Ciao, I’m Federico 👋

Enablement isn’t just a function, strategy, or process.

It’s a mindset and a discipline that transforms how organisations empower customer-facing teams, support buyers, and align for growth.

Yet, too often, it’s misunderstood – boxed into narrow tasks like:

“Training delivery.”
“Content creation.”
“Sales tools management.”

But here’s the truth👇

Enablement exists to empower customer-facing teams to achieve meaningful business outcomes. 

It equips them with the training, resources, processes, support, and tools they need to produce high-quality outputs on which their job goals depend.

Enablement bridges the gap between potential and performance, providing a certain set of “means” for someone to achieve something.

Over the years, I’ve seen organisations invest heavily in enablement initiatives that fail to stick.

I know because I’ve made those mistakes too.

Early in my career, I focused on fixing performance at the individual level, only to realise that the system itself was holding people back.

I learnt the hard way that no amount of training or resources can succeed without addressing the foundational barriers within the organisation.

That’s where I come in.

I help founders, CEOs, and revenue leaders diagnose systemic blockers to performance and empower enablement professionals to amplify their impact.

Whether you’re just starting to explore enablement or scaling an existing function, I’m here to help.

Enablement, done right, can be your organisation’s competitive edge.

If you’re ready to unlock that edge, join me on this journey: follow my content, take one of my assessments, or reach out directly.
