Good morning, and welcome back to The Closers Inner Circle Podcast with your hosts, Denise Griffitts and Ben Gay III!

We’re now in Week 11 of our Sales Infiltration masterclass series, and the momentum just keeps building. Today, we’re exploring the chapter that starts on page 257 of The Closers Pt 2— a powerful section focused on the art of advanced closing and the psychology behind high-stakes conversations.

If you’ve been with us from the start, you know each week adds another layer of insight and precision to your sales skills. And if this is your first time tuning in—welcome aboard! You’re absolutely welcome to begin here, but we highly recommend checking out Weeks 1 through 10 to get the full scope of what we’re building together. This series unfolds step by step, just like any successful sales process.

In this episode, we’ll continue sharpening your Sales Infiltration abilities—not just the how, but the when, the why, and the deeper strategies that separate the good from the great. This is where confident salespeople transform into master closers.

And we also recommend – highly recommend – that you have your Closers Books in front of you as Ben shares his decades of sales wisdom.

By the way, today is World Book Day! I just published a LinkedIn newsletter highlighting a few of my favorite authors. Leading the list are Ben Gay III and his legendary mentor, Dr. Napoleon Hill. I also gave a special mention to Ben’s friend, Og Mandino, whose book The Greatest Salesman in the World is a timeless classic. It’s short, deeply inspirational, and has earned its place as a cornerstone in both personal development and sales literature.

Welcome to Your Partner In Success Radio with your host Denise Griffitts.

Today’s guest is Maggie Olson, founder of Nova Chief of Staff, the leading platform for Chief of Staff education and certification. With 20 years of leadership experience at Nordstrom and T-Mobile, Maggie built the Chief of Staff model from scratch to support thousands of employees and executives. Through Nova, she’s trained hundreds of professionals from top companies like Amazon, Microsoft, and Salesforce.

Maggie’s career took off in her mid-twenties when she became a Buyer at Nordstrom—a role she’d long dreamt of. While the glamour of the job was exciting, Maggie learned that leadership isn't about making immediate, sweeping changes. Instead, it’s about pacing yourself, understanding your team, and developing the ability to recognize burnout before it takes a toll.

As someone who grew her LinkedIn following to 17,000 in less than a year by sharing insights and resources, Maggie is also a great example of how to build influence through leadership and engagement. Her approach focuses on engaging with industry leaders, sharing practical resources, and always thinking from her audience’s point of view—asking, “What do they want to hear? How can I help them?” Maggie can explain how early-career professionals can use these same methods to build meaningful relationships and become trusted voices.

In this episode, Maggie will share how to step into leadership early, avoid burnout during rapid career growth, and build trust and influence authentically. She’ll also discuss key insights from the 2024 Women in the Workplace Report and reveal how she balanced building a Chief of Staff team while navigating major life milestones.
