"Rocky started as one of the first enterprise sellers at Databricks in Germany. We worked together on complicated, large enterprise clients to expand the Azure Databricks footprint. Rocky is highly inquisitive, empathetic to customer demands and an overall excellent communicator who knows how to manage virtual teams to harness relevant resources efficiently. Where we worked well together was through his leadership and regular account synchronisation to address the challenges and progress of our combined accounts. This proved to be tremendously beneficial to support our Azure growth. Rocky is highly coachable, open minded and a fantastic team player. He works well under high pressure in hyper-growth accounts. I wouldn't be surprised if he becomes a leader in his next position."

The session was outstanding—rich in actionable insights and delivered with exceptional professionalism. Highly recommended for any company seeking expert guidance on actionable growth metrics!"

"We had a coaching session with Rocky as part of the Hessen10 program.
It was genuinely a very compact learning experience on the fundamentals of scaling a business and accurate performance measurement strategies, where we structured a lot of our prior knowledge, but also got new insights. Coaching was engaging, interactive, insightful and also very descriptive, when new cocnepts got introduced.
I would definitely recommend it to our startup peers."

"I worked with Rocky at Databricks, and he quickly became one of my go-to sparring partners. From day one, he stood out as a sharp, thoughtful sales leader with a ton of experience in enterprise sales and GTM strategy. Rocky has a great way of communicating clearly and intentionally, always bringing structure and depth to the conversation. He blends strategic thinking with hands-on execution in a way that really moves things forward. Notably, in his first year, he closed one of the top 10 EMEA deals — winning a major new logo: a leading German manufacturer for heating systems. Any sales team would be lucky to have him on board"
Cen Smajli
Enterprise Account Manager, Databricks
"I'm happy to write a recommendation for Rocky Khan, who I had the pleasure of hosting as the speaker at a recent Startup Grind event that I organised. Rocky's delivered a persuasive session titled: Sales Workshop for Startups.
In short, I am deeply impressed.
His extensive expertise, cultivated through decades of sales experience with tech giants like Miro, Databricks, and Splunk, clearly shone throughout his presentation.
I found his speech extremely persuasive and engaging, as he tactfully combined practical insights with compelling storytelling. Rocky's ability to connect and interact with the audience from the start was remarkable. He created an ambience that kept the attention and motivation levels high throughout the session as he imparted crucial knowledge about effective sales processes.
What truly set this workshop apart from other sales workshops I have previously attended was the structured sales approach, tailored specifically for startups seeking scale. He introduced a unique and actionable sales framework that advocates for a "problem" focus rather than "product" focus to add substantial customer value, shorten long sales cycles and tackle complex sales challenges head-on.
Importantly, he presented anecdotes, personal stories and learnings that not only enriched the learning experience, but also grounded the concepts in strategies that the participants could immediately apply in their sales activities.
In summary, I highly endorse Rocky's workshop as a resounding success and confidently recommend his advisory services for organisations seeking to scale their sales potential."
Mithun A. Sridharan

As a technical guy I was quite astonished about Rocky's ability to explain complicated things in simple words to the customers. He understood the benefits and applied MEDDICC in his daily business. I loved his motivation, positive energy and enthusiasm. Rocky was a great teamplayer and I would love to work with him again."
