Advanced Sales Management for Technology Companies

Subject overview

Managing a high performance sales organization is one of the most complex, challenging and rewarding opportunities in today’s business world. It involves two principle areas of responsibility: managing the sales function and managing salespeople.

The latter incorporates all important aspects of "people sales management": visioning, leading, goal setting, performance evaluation and feedback, recruiting, training, coaching, and motivating. Because these "people management" aspects are the ones that most leverage sales results, they are the learning focus of this workshop and seminar.
