See on Scoop.it – Social Selling: with a focus on building business relationships online
When I hear the reasons for not wanting sales people to be engaged with social media I am quickly reminded that not all sales leaders understand why social selling is essential in B2B business, and that it indeed is a “client executive interfacing activity.” However, without the integration of a social media strategy with sound sales process, methodology and approach, they are right – it is a waste of time.

From the authors:
This presentation based upon the book “No Straight Lines: making sense of our non-linear world” was made at the CareWare conference in healthcare innovation in Aarhus Denmark – The presentation argues that when we design around the needs of humanity, we can create better healthcare systems, which are also more resilient, sustainable, adaptable and in fact less expensive to run.
