Evaluate the prsenet induction process at ACD division of Ajax and suggest changes in duration and content, if any. The induction process is a three month, formal process prepared by Hr dept with a min of 15 ppl where In first month- They visit all manu. Units of ajax and are given ppts to be read on Ajax’s background. A mentor is assigned at the end of the month within his/her own division In second month- Specific training programs are conducted focusing on aspects of technology, products and processes along with a visit to customer sites etc. with sr. sales managers and trainees are asked to make a ppt in the end. In third month- Trainees are informed their final posting location , different from training location. Changes to be made: The training period should be reduced from three to one month, in the light of the present scenario that traditional methods are not creating effective sales force and also in order to reduce training related costs. New training modules need to be introduced. Sales supervisors/ managers should be trained as to how to manage the new age sales force team under them and mentor them in a more effective way. Week wise it would be like this: First week : Instead of travelling to all units, a trainee to be posted at one unit and sessions taken up by sr. managers on Ajax philosophy and and mission and R&D strengths etc. Second Week: Specific training programs. Industry background and knowledge. Both geographical and functional aspects of the company. Third to Fourth week: Mock training calls and visits. Industry experts on how to convert and generate leads. One-on-one sessions with the trainees. Demo sessions to how to handle sales calls , handling clients, building trust , relationship management. We would train at a local location to 15 sales engineers at the time of their hiring replacing the current traditional system of training. Q2.
