Effectives sales enablement training doesn’t come in a one-size-fits-all program, but is best when it’s tailored to specific needs within the sales organization. Hear how Kronos brought its sales and marketing teams together to identify and prioritize sales enablement needs and in the process, developed a new mechanism, the sales leadership council, to ensure those needs were met.
