“With Selling Boldly we were able to make a really quick and logical transition from outside sales into an inside sales stance during the pandemic. The gas never came off the pedal for us!

They know they have a reason and a purpose for being here.” –Renee R., Talent & Sales Manager, Manufacturing
“The program taught me that the extra effort isn’t really that much extra effort.
