ABOUT KIRA THENERT
High‑performing sales teams don’t just happen — they’re built with the right mindset, strategy and enablement. I’m an ambitious, hands‑on SDR Team Lead at a hyper‑growth SaaS startup, passionate about equipping sales orgs with the processes, tools, training and insights to drive predictable revenue. I build high‑velocity pipeline and scalable SDR structures while coaching a diverse mix of juniors and seniors. I turn chaotic processes into practical systems — playbooks that get used, outbound cadences that book meetings, and CRM hygiene that reveals real pipeline health. I own onboarding, enablement and repeatable cadences so new hires ramp fast and teams hit quota consistently. Cross‑functional alignment is everything. I optimize knowledge flow between SDRs, AEs, Marketing, Product and RevOps to tighten handoffs, shorten sales cycles and increase deal velocity. 🤝 I also champion automation and data‑driven reporting to remove friction and scale what works. Always curious and constantly iterating, I focus on developing talent, creating clear career paths, and turning pipeline into predictable growth. Let’s connect — I love exchanging ideas about building scalable GTM motions and high‑performing sales teams.
