As an ISM student, I had the opportunity to attend high-quality classes and meet peers from other industries that are sharing similar areas of interest in business development and sales. I learned about up-to-date tools and strategies that enabled to enhance my individual and my team’s performance. I also had the chance to be introduced to latest marketing tactics learn about design thinking hands-on experience on customer journey mapping and eventually share quality time with my colleagues that created a great teamwork. I appreciate that all materials are very well structured and use real Business life examples that can be immediately applied in daily job. The atmosphere is very engaging and supportive to develop senior associate with high potential as team leaders.
I can particularly recall the concept of dilemma in roundtable workshops well you can share best practices from your own experience or collect others valuable expertise. The weekly sales steep is very welcomed in all sales organizations that I was working with. Lately the online webinars and networking are a good alternative in working remotely and a real benchmark how to motivate and engage virtual teams. Last but not least the mentoring program is a great development tool that give me the chance to learn and master the art of coaching and keen insights from a wide range of business segments. I am glad to be an active member of ISM valuable community!
