Our current series of Professional Development Days concluded yesterday in Sydney, after being in Melbourne earlier in the week, and Brisbane the week before.
This series of events looked at why ‘everyone is in sales’ in a single day workshop that explored the customer journey, the legal requirements on Operators during the sales process, and the art of selling. We explored handling difficult conversations – a skillset any professional needs to keep working on.
What was exciting to see was the number of professionals in attendance, with attendance numbers up by 40% on past events, proving that the most important people in our sector are hungry for development and networking.
“It was great to be with industry colleagues and share knowledge and connect. A really positive day! Well done to you and your team for bringing the industry together like this.”
Anne Lewis, Senior Sales Manager
