Sales Leadership Program Advisory Council

Our Advisory Council is an active group of industry sales leaders who are committed to helping our students succeed. They meet twice annually, once in the Fall and once in the Spring.

Council members provide valuable insight and feedback on the Sales Leadership Program content and structure, research programs and directions of the program. Their input helps ensure Ted Rogers School graduates exceed the expectations and demands of the job market. Council members also serve as ambassadors for the school within their industries or sectors.
