The world of selling has changed drastically over the past decade. Not only has social media completely revolutionized the sales process, but globalization has had a dramatic effect on how much organisational and individual cultural values play a role in a seller’s ability to penetrate a new company, uncover new sales opportunities, and close a deal. In many instances, the process has become far more complex, thereby contributing to significantly longer sales cycles, smaller deal sizes, and decreased revenue.

CQ® Sales: Use Cultural Intelligence to Reach New Markets is an interactive workshop that teaches sales professionals how to leverage the cultural values of an organisation, team, or decision-maker to open more sales opportunities, shorten sale cycles, and close more deals.
