Sales Education in College – Pervasive, Disappeared, and Now It’s Back!
Audio Podcast
Todd Caponi
Podcast Episode Description
We so often hear and see people proclaiming that “Sales should be taught in college”. Well, it was…and in high school, too, back in the early 1900’s. The most prominent universities in the country (Harvard, Wharton, etc.) had it. Then it disappeared – for decades.
