Developing Managers Who can Manage and Lead Sales Forces in Multicultural Markets

Rolph Anderson, Rajiv Mehta

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Today’s salespeople must be trained to sell in multicultural markets, yet those largely responsible for sales training, i.e., sales managers, also need multicultural training. The limited literature on sales management training indicates that most sales managers receive little or no training, and rarely does the training cover multicultural markets. Unless sales managers receive sufficient multicultural training, their sales forces and their companies will have difficulty competing globally in the 21st Century.
