Wilson Learning ‘Dinner and Discussion’

18^th August 2016 | 6 p.m. | The Ritz Hotel, London

Many businesses have good sales processes and methodologies, but how does good become great?

Wilson Learning firmly believe that great comes from a sales philosophy, behaviours, values and an executed approach that moves your sales team from Reps and Execs to “Trusted Advisors”.

At the Wilson Learning Dinner and Discussion, held 18th August 2016 at The Ritz hotel, London; Senior Business Executives from a range of industries met with the Wilson Learning team to learn how to take their sales organisation from good to great, while sharing their individual challenges, insights, and perspectives.

David Yesford, Senior Vice President of Wilson Learning Worldwide, who has 30 years of experience developing and implementing human performance improvement solutions around the world, gave an engaging presentation, sharing with the team the ROI achieved when organisations improve their traditional sales approach and transform their sales executives into “Trusted Advisors”.

During the event we discussed the critical elements and skills needed to build the mindset of a “Trusted Advisor” and how to equip your sales team so they know how to leverage their expertise to their customers’ advantage.

If you would like Wilson Learning to help you to assess your sales team against core skills required of “Trusted Advisors”, please contact us.
