Episode Description

The buzz: “We don’t even know If a salesperson replying to us in real-time in the year 2020 would be a human or a robot…AI has already penetrated into our lives with or without our consent” (Mehreen Siddiqua). AI is changing business in ways not seen since the Industrial Revolution, says Accenture. But when we apply AI technologies to human interactions, particularly in B2B Social Selling, will it add value for modern B2B salespeople? The experts speak. Bernie Borges, Vengreso: “The secret to success is good leadership…making the lives of your team members or workers better” (Tony Dungy). Tim Hughes, Digital Leadership Associates: "Sometimes it is the people no one imagines anything of who do the things that no one can imagine" (Alan Turing). Kirsten Boileau, SAP: “As more and more artificial intelligence is entering into the world, more and more emotional intelligence must enter into leadership” (Amit Ray). Join us for Social Selling and AI: New Frontier or Pricey Gimmick? Part 2.
