Anton van Ensbergen
Business For Home defines a leader and a professional networker in Direct Sales as follows:
"A leader and professional networker is the one who has the ability to guide and at the same time is able to motivate team members, inspire respect and confidence and explain the power of the compensation plan".
But they should also have:
- Effective communication: They must transmit the needed information suitably. It’s fundamental for leading.
- Vision: A leader needs to have a vision, which means not only thinking in a short term, but trying to see a bigger picture.
- Balance: Give importance to team members’ opinions.
- Art of Feedback: In order to produce good feedback it’s important to keep it impartial and objective. Criticism must bring solutions and improvement.
I met him when I needed real growth, both personal and professional, and someone to call out my roadblocks. He guides without hovering, motivates without nagging, and builds trust that just clicks.
His communication is straight-up: no fluff, just what you need to hear, even if it's tough. It cuts through the noise and makes working together solid.
Anton thinks big picture, not just next month. He shifted me from quick fixes to long-game strategies, opening up real possibilities.
He listens for real, gets your ideas and worries, keeps things balanced so everyone feels heard.
Feedback from him? Sharp, fair, and always with a fix in mind. It's helped me level up my skills and how I lead.
Anton gave me direction and staying power. Changed my take on myself and this business.
