Members of our Sales Advisory Council in
the Scott College of Business serve as advocates for our sales program,
role models for our students, and advisors for the strategic direction
of the Sales and Negotiations Center. They also provide financial
support for our sales educational efforts. In return, each participant
on our Sales Advisory Council benefits from: exceptional opportunities
to recruit outstanding entry level sales talent, recognition
for involvement in our efforts to develop the next generation of sales
leaders, and excellent networking opportunities with other highly
successful sales executives.
