Networking – a professional approach
Networking has massive benefits to individuals and organisations on multiple levels, and yet many neglect it completely, go through the motions or treat it solely as an opportunity to get out of the office and blow off some steam.
This session emphasises a professional and structured approach to networking; exploring overall networking strategy, how to optimise results from specific events, and pays particular attention to
networking for sales. It gives delegates the tools and insight to raise their networking game and reap the rewards for themselves and their employers

Challenging for Sales Success
For decades B2B organisations in solution selling have focused their sales approach on understanding client needs and building strong relationships. But research in recent years has clearly established that this is no longer enough, and that the very best salespeople go beyond traditional consultative and solution selling
to ‘challenge’ their clients in multiple ways. This session introduces the ‘Challenger Sale’.
