Sandler TrainingSM at a Glance
Who we are
Sandler Training is the leading provider of a comprehensive set of sales, management, leadership, coaching and related training programs. The privately owned company was founded in 1967 by David H. Sandler and Edna C. Sandler. David was a visionary sales trainer, motivational speaker and author of “You Can’t Teach a Kid To Ride a Bike at a Seminar.”
Sandler Training has grown exponentially over the past 40 years to become the training industry’s most successful and widely used sales and management curriculum and development programs. Its key - and still unique - feature is its ongoing reinforcement of Sandler’s core teachings. Through continued support and follow-up training sessions, Sandler Training transforms the sales culture of organizations, whether they are a Fortune 500 with two thousand salespeople around the globe, or a small business with just four sales reps.
What we do
Sandler Training is based on reinforcement training. Changing people’s attitudes and behaviors and their total mastery of a new selling methodology is not a “quick fix” solution that happens in a one-day seminar or an eight-week course. Producing lasting change in people only comes about through ongoing reinforcement: classroom-based training delivered every week. Using its unequalled network of 225 Sandler franchises in the U.S.A., Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom and 11 other countries, Sandler solutions range from a single-site company with a few sales professionals serving local clientele to a global enterprise with thousands of professionals serving different geographic and business vertical markets. Sandler’s extensive curriculum covers sales, management and leadership training, executive coaching and other programs tailored to individual client needs.
Leadership
David Sandler passed away in 1995. Edna Sandler succeeded David as CEO and President from 1993 through 2007. Today, David Mattson, CEO, and Bruce Seidman, President, son of David Sandler, continue to propel the Sandler vision forward. Other key executives include Tony Gostomski (finance), Bob Gregoire (global accounts), Shannon Haaf (legal), Steve Howell (operations), Margaret Jacks (global affairs/legal), Rachel Miller (marketing), and Ron Taylor (franchising).
