Katherine Dieter to receive first Sales Excellence scholarship from ValueSelling

Boulder, Colorado, October 1, 2010 – On Friday, October 1st, one of the Leeds School of Business students at the University of Colorado will receive the very first Sales Excellence scholarships sponsored by ValueSelling Associates. The scholarship was created to support academic excellence and sales leadership for the next generation of business professionals. The United States Department of Labor predicts that sales professional jobs will grow by a rate of 7% over the next decade, noting that "Job prospects will be best for those with a college degree, the appropriate technical expertise, and the personal traits necessary for successful selling." ValueSelling Associates supports college programs that bring professionalism and a well-rounded education to the field.

The first recipient of the Sales Excellence scholarship is Katherine Dieter, a senior with a double-major in advertising and marketing at the Leeds School of Business, University of Colorado. Katherine was awarded the scholarship for her academic record and good standing at the business school and was selected for the award by the Leeds School’s Scholarship Committee. We congratulate Katherine for a job well done and wish her the best in her chosen career.
