This week on the show, we welcomed Paul Fifield, the founder and CEO of Sales Impact Academy. We dive deep into how investing in learning is one of the best ways to drive sales effectiveness, and why learning programs in the profession of sales and marketing,have not existed to date. We also talk about how that's hindered our professional development, particularly because sales is such a tough job.
