Julie Thomas Biography

Julie Thomas is the president and CEO of ValueSelling Associates Inc., a global leader in sales training and performance improvement. Thomas is a speaker, author, and consultant with more than 24 years of experience in sales. She has built her career on a deep mastery of the ValueSelling Framework, which she credits for her advancement in sales, sales management, and corporate leadership roles. Thomas began her sales career at Gartner Group, now Gartner Inc., before leading ValueSelling Associates and expanding its global presence.

As president and CEO, Thomas oversees the company's worldwide expansion and its position as a market leader in on-demand, instructor-led, virtual instructor-led, and hybrid learning solutions delivered in more than 17 languages. She collaborates with revenue leaders across industries to improve sales performance and guides organizations through uncertainty, helping them build resilient teams that drive sustainable results and foster long-term customer relationships. Under Thomas's leadership, ValueSelling Associates has become an industry leader in competency- and process-based training for business-to-business sales organizations.

Thomas is the author of "ValueSelling: Driving Sales Up One Conversation at a Time" and "The Power of Value Selling: The Gold Standard to Drive Revenue and Create Customers for Life." She is also a contributor to Forbes.com, Forbes Business Development Council, and LinkedIn Sales Blog. In "The Power of Value Selling," Thomas presents buyer-centric selling strategies and value-based selling techniques for modern sales professionals.

Under Thomas's leadership, ValueSelling Associates was named a Leader in the first Gartner Magic Quadrant for Sales Training Service Providers and was one of only three vendors placed in the Leaders quadrant. The company has been recognized on the Training Industry Top 20 Sales Training and Enablement Company list for 16 consecutive years and has been named a Top Sales Training company by Selling Power for 14 years in a row. ValueSelling Associates has also received a Grand Stevie Award, recognizing the company as a Top 5 winner.

Thomas has demonstrated adaptability in the face of industry disruption. When in-person training was halted during the global pandemic, she led the reengineering of the company's online platforms to deliver a new Virtual Instructor-Led Training offering with enhanced engagement and interactivity. Thomas has also championed the integration of artificial intelligence into sales coaching, launching ValueCoach AI to maximize revenue performance while maintaining essential human-to-human relationships in sales.
