R Morris SimsR. Morris Sims attained his bachelor's degree in chemical engineering and started reading books about how to become successful in business. Soon, he found himself guided away from engineering, and toward sales and management. After two years of succesful sales he was invited into management, and within the next several years he was promoted to an executive position. He soon became an assistant vice president, then corporate vice president, and finally Vice President and Chief Learning Officer for Sales. He went on to head a training department that trained 12,000 sales people and 1,000 managers. With his extensive studies, reading, writing, and a Masters of Science in Management, plus his thirty-plus years of experience in a highly successful business career, he has now distilled what he has learned into Practical Influence. After many years of braving the winters of the northeast, Morris and Carla, his wife, have now settled in Plano, Texas. You can find more from Morris at morrissims.com Read More Read Less
