AI tools such as ChatGPT are used directly during the training and tested in real-world sales scenarios. Collaborative exchanges, peer feedback, and moderated discussions promote the transfer of knowledge. You’ll leave the training with a ready-to-use prompt library and a personalized 30-day action plan.
