WHY IT’S IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE IN SALES TO BE OPEN TO PROBLEM SOLVING 

Traditionally, sales has been viewed as a one-way street, where the seller presents their product or service and the buyer either purchases it or not.

Character is an integral aspect of effective leader of all seasons. Leaders need to demonstrate integrity, honesty, and a strong work ethic.
