AI Is Rewriting the Sales Playbook — And It’s Center Stage at Summit 2026

The New Era of Selling Starts Here

AI isn’t coming for your sales job, it’s coming for your inefficiencies.

The sales landscape is changing faster than ever. Reps are using AI tools to analyze data in seconds, predict buyer intent, and automate the admin work that used to drain their day. Leaders are rethinking how teams run, coach, and scale.

And at  Sandler Summit 2026, the world’s most forward-thinking sales experts are unpacking exactly how to harness AI to sell smarter — without losing the human touch that wins deals.

4 SUMMIT26 Sessions That Define the Future of AI in Sales

The AI-Powered Sales Brain: The Next Generation of Sales Technology

Speaker: Jordan Ledwein | i10 Solutions

Sales reps today are buried under admin work, meeting prep, and follow-ups. This session reveals how to build your own “second brain” — powered by AI, automation, and conversational intelligence.

When your CRM stops being a database and starts becoming a thinking partner, you reclaim time, clarity, and focus. That’s how modern sellers win.

How to Build Trust in an AI Age

Speaker: Mike Crandall | Custom Growth Solutions

AI is everywhere — but trust is timeless. In this session, Mike explores how to keep humanity at the center of the sales process. You’ll learn to lead your team through the AI age without losing the empathy, curiosity, and connection that make great salespeople irreplaceable.

Leveraging AI and Human Connection for Next-Level Sales Success

Speaker: Chris Drouin | EAM Consulting Group

AI doesn’t replace the human element of selling — it amplifies it. This session shows how to strike the perfect balance between automation and authenticity, blending data with emotional intelligence to create deeper buyer engagement and better results.

AI and the Future of Sales Efficiency

Speaker: Lisa Ellis | Head of Product, Sandler

Every CRO and VP of Sales is asking the same question: how do we use AI intelligently? Lisa breaks down five opportunities to create seller capacity with AI, how to redeploy that capacity, and how to measure its impact on real pipeline growth.

Why This Matters

If 2023 was the year of AI buzzwords, 2026 is the year of AI execution.

The winners in sales will be those who stop chasing shiny tools and start building systems that combine data, discipline, and human connection. Summit 2026 is where those systems come to life — with real experts, real playbooks, and real takeaways you can use Monday morning.
