Summaries like this, every morning.
The session is framed around a shift in how sales organizations are built in the AI era. Shahali's experience scaling go-to-market at Fireworks AI and Granola will inform the discussion, according to the announcement. The topics suggest AI-era sales teams may operate with different assumptions about team size, quotas, and rep compensation than traditional SaaS benchmarks. The event also touches on go-to-market structure when products spread on their own, a scenario that may reduce reliance on traditional outbound sales. Registration is open via the linked Office Hours page.
