TrainingBriefs® Selling with Integrity

New Micro-Learning! One definition of being ethical is “conforming to professional standards of conduct.” Herein lies both a problem and an opportunity for those of us in the world of sales. The problem lies in the fact that many people do not think of sales as a profession. Negative stereotypes have caused them to avoid or look down at a salesperson with disdain.
