Gerhard Gschwandtner is the founder of Selling Power Magazine and an enduring voice in the world of sales leadership, mindset, and authenticity.
Gerhard’s story is extraordinary — from growing up in Austria and stumbling into his first sales role (inventing sales enablement decades before it had a name) to creating Selling Power Magazine, one of the most influential platforms in the history of professional selling.
We talk about how curiosity, creativity, and courage shape every career — and how staying in the question, not rushing to the answer, is what keeps you growing. Gerhard shares how he’s helped shape the profession through interviews with legends like Mary Kay, Zig Ziglar, Wayne Dyer, Mark Benioff, and even a few time-travel guests like “Abraham Lincoln” and “Aristotle.”
This isn’t just a history of sales — it’s a masterclass in mindset.
