I want to help you meet all your challenges and will be publishing articles on career development regularly. If you have a particular topic you'd like to see covered, please sign up for the newsletter and email info@leadinginsales.com with the topic and a little background on why it's important to you.
I'm also in contact with B2B sales recruiters and will be posting B2B sales leadership opportunities here on a regular basis! So stay tuned for exciting job postings in this section as well!
