Answer Example
"I like to improve my sales skills by learning from others who have been successful in my role. I will sometimes find a mentor who can assist me in a new role or even invest in a program outside of work that I think will help me in a certain area that I need to make improvements in. I usually listen to podcasts on the way to work to get me in the best mindset to start my day."
