Steve Maule, Vice President of Global Sales at Acclaro, joins host Brendon Dennewill to explore what happens to revenue teams when growth accelerates, and why clarity and communication are the difference between scaling successfully and exposing misalignment. With over 14 years in the localization and language services industry and a track record that includes onboarding brands like Spotify, IKEA, Nvidia, and Disney, Steve brings a uniquely global lens to challenges every RevOps leader faces.

From defining what "qualified pipeline" actually means to knowing when to add structure without killing agility, Steve shares hard-won lessons on building aligned go-to-market teams. The conversation also dives into AI's role in reshaping sales and marketing, and why the localization industry offers a compelling preview of how people's roles evolve rather than disappear.
