Join us online on Tuesday 8th March and Wednesday 9th, 2022 for this two-day, four-part conference that focuses on what key account managers, the people at the customer ‘coalface’, actually do – how they need to do it and what competencies and capabilities are crucial to their success, and that of their company and customer.
So presentations and discussions in this conference are broadly grouped around Business and customer understanding; Selling and business development; organisational effectiveness; and Relationships and interaction.
You are invited to join in the panel discussions and Q &A sessions which will alternate with thought-provoking presentations. This exceptional and experienced line-up of conference presenters come from multiple business sectors and academia across Europe and the US, to offer you very practical approaches and tips as well as new insight from KAM research.
Whether you are a key account manager yourself, or a KAM or HR leader, this is about things you need to know to operate successfully at the forefront of the ever-expanding world of KAM.
