Attendees will gain a deep understanding of what these roles entail, strategies to excel in them, and the keys to long-term success. This 60-minute session will be hosted by Varun Satia, Founder and CEO at Kraftshala, in an engaging Q&A format.

Speaking about the session, Varun Satia, Founder & CEO, Kraftshala, said, “As things get easier to build with AI and technology, the need for sales & business professionals will continue to rise. Despite the huge demand for skilled sales professionals, recruiters still face a massive talent shortage, which is ironic. We are committed to helping folks launch a great career and we are very excited about partnering with leaders like Adarsh Menon to help the youth really understand what sales is all about, why it’s such a great career to be in, and helping them see beyond the misconceptions surrounding a sales career.”

Industry studies have shown the enormity of the problem. As per a recent Gartner study, chief sales officers have identified talent recruitment as their top external challenge. Multiple reports and studies including the latest one published by Linkedin identify sales as one of the most in-demand skills in 2024.

It’s in this context that the upcoming session will cover details on 2 specific roles within Sales & Business – Area Sales managers in FMCG and Category Management in Ecommerce. The session will also deep dive with examples into reasons professionals with sales backgrounds hold a significant advantage in the race to top leadership positions. It will formulate how the youth today can acquire these skills to be counted amongst the top talent and land high-paying sales jobs!

The session is one of multiple free sessions that Kraftshala is organizing on careers of tomorrow in collaboration with the industry leaders to bridge the gap between industry and academia.
