Anneke Seley

Anneke Seley, @annekeseley on Twitter, was the twelfth employee at Oracle and Marc Benioff’s first manager at the company. In 1985, she created OracleDirect, Oracle’s global inside sales organization and was its first leader. This pioneering virtual selling team was the fastest growing revenue generating engine in the company in spite of a very skeptical and sometimes hostile field sales team. Anneke now leads Reality Works Group, a modern sales strategy and implementation consultancy with unique expertise in global inside sales and social selling. She is the coauthor of Sales 2.0: Improve Business Results Using Innovative Sales Practices and Technology (J. Wiley 2008.)
