Ready to dial: Building BDR onboarding around skills, not course completions
Outbound is where AI automation is moving fastest, which makes BDR readiness harder to judge, not easier. Tanya Aisley leads enablement for a 50+ person BDR team at Birdeye. She started by benchmarking the team, then picked the skills that move the numbers. In this interactive session she shows how to measure BDR skills instead of course completions, how she is rebuilding generic go-to-market onboarding into a BDR-specific programme, and where AI roleplay fits. Her take: roleplay helps new hires build phone confidence fast, but tenured reps find bots predictable, so ongoing manager coaching is still what keeps cold-call skills improving. Expect live polls and table discussion throughout.
