Global Sales Transformation XVII

1st December 2022, London Stock Exchange

Brought to you by

The Theme: Implementing a sales culture for talent to thrive

The current market is experiencing new levels of extraordinary challenges, where competition and global events are heavily influencing the market. With talks of an impending recession closing in, sales organisations will play a critically significant role in helping companies navigate through these turbulent times. 

Within every great sales organisation is exceptional sales talent. However, the recent ‘Great Resignation’ has highlighted recruitment challenges and high levels of sales staff attrition. 

In this year’s event, we explore: 

  • How can companies source great sales talent? 
  • How can we engage our sales teams during these times of uncertainty? 
  • What can organisations do to retain their best sales talent? 

What can I learn?: Learn From Those Who Have Overcome These Challenges

The topics above will be explored through the lens of government legislation that has opened the door to sales and sales leadership apprenticeships in the UK, many of which sales leaders are unaware of.  

Joining us will be guest speakers from a variety of leading organisations, to take you through the recruitment strategies and development initiatives that they have used to attract, engage and retain top talent.
