WELLESLEY, Mass., July 31, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- PI Worldwide, a company that empowers businesses to truly understand what drives workplace behaviors, today announced that it has been included on the 2015 list of Selling Power's Top 20 Sales Training Companies. The list is comprised of companies that excel in helping sales leaders improve the performance of their sales teams and appears in the August issue which will be available to subscribers the first week of August.

According to Selling Power publisher and founder Gerhard Gschwandtner, sales training is a vital component of a high-performance sales organization. 

"Great salespeople require the right toolset, the right skillset, and the right mindset to win," he said. "A great, consultative sales-training initiative can address all three areas. Sales leaders should use this list of the Top 20 Sales Training Companies to find the solution that best suits their needs."

Each sales-training company featured on this year's list offers sales organizations the following benefits:

• Provides a consultative experience.
• Quantifies results with metrics.
• Offers customization and post-training support.
• Has a documented track record of ROI and customer satisfaction.

"We pride ourselves on providing our clients with the tools they need to create the strongest sales team possible. We change the way they find the right people, develop leaders at all levels, and achieve growth goals," said Mike Zani, chief executive officer of PI Worldwide. "To be named to this list and keep company with these impressive organizations, is an absolute honor and further validates the importance of using behavior and skill assessments, dynamic workforce analytics, and business expertise in the workplace."

Here are the four main criteria Selling Power considered when selecting the top sales-training companies:

1. Depth and breadth of training offered
2. Innovative and new offerings (specific training courses or methodology) or delivery methods
3. Ability to customize offerings
4. Strength of client satisfaction

Selling Power editors say the firms included on the 2015 Top 20 Sales Training Companies list have "demonstrated an excellent awareness of the skills and tools required to succeed and remain competitive in today's selling environment."
