In this webcast, we will present results from ATD’s new research on whether sales managers are sufficiently equipped to handle their responsibilities, including managing and developing sales representatives and meeting unit productivity goals. This webcast also looks at the lack of training programs directed specifically at incoming sales managers, and will provide insights on how learning leaders can develop and sustain successful sales manager training programs.
