The Sales Excellence Hub (SEH) aims to strengthen connections between sales practice and research to improve the sales profession in the United Kingdom. The Sales Excellence Hub has organised a series of events this year to learn about priorities and challenges of the UK sales profession.

At the State of Sales Conference 2024, we will release and present findings from our study to learn about further developing the sales profession. Additionally, leading sales researchers will present insights from research projects related to these topics and sales leaders will discuss the findings and pathways for developing the discipline.

Agenda of the State of Sales Conference 2024:

State of Sales 2024 – Where is the UK sales profession and how can it improve?
