V Teamers win big at Women in Sales Awards in London.

By: Verizon Careers

This year, V Teamers were honored at the Women in Sales Awards (Europe) with 26 finalists and four winners across our team.

Fostering an inclusive workplace across all of our teams is a key focus at Verizon. In fact, our commitment to diversity and inclusion has earned us recognition throughout the years, including being named a Top Company for Executive Women by the National Association for Female Executives (NAFE) and a top 10 Best Company for Multicultural Women by Working Mother.

To promote diversity in the workplace, the Women in Sales Awards (WISA) aims to encourage women to enter and excel in traditionally male-dominated fields, one of which is sales. The awards ceremony recognizes the achievements of women in this field across 16 categories, including field sales, technology sales and more. Winners and finalists from different companies are named in each category. 

At the recent Women in Sales Awards in Europe, V Teamers were recognized for their accomplishments in the field, with a total of 26 finalists and four winners from Verizon Business Group (VBG) and Verizon Media.
