Appco Group India- Grooming Young Talent in the Business

Research has shown that the job markets have lightened in the recent years and companies now seek ahead to recruit and develop the younger talent, for they form an integral part of the new HR strategies. Building and grooming young talent, specifically for sales functions, have hugely helped organizations to secure their businesses in the long term.

We, at Appco Group, regard the new entrants as our ‘Young Guns’ in the business and are ready to invest in their talent. We believe that when the business needs become challenging, grooming the new sales recruits requires a critical approach. Quality is something we aspire for, be it in sales, in operations, in marketing and every initiative that our company undertakes. The young talent is generally raw and academically inclined which needs grooming to become practically acquainted with the business processes and how it works. This is to focus on the significance of caring and nurturing the young pool of people and helping them identify their potential. 

Although grooming the young talent yields many fruits, but it is a highly risky exercise in itself and managers face a lot of challenge especially when it comes to handling new entrants. The biggest challenge is that the young minds are highly volatile and driven by the influential factors easily. Hence dealing with them and grooming them to the right path becomes an increasingly difficult task where the new talent will have to be dealt with patience and trust. A planned employee introduction and training program in place will ensure that the new entrants go through various exercises and get exposed to real time business practices to understand and get hold of their interest factors. This will not only help them gauge their potential but also will form a feeling of connectivity with the business policies. 

Grooming and developing quality manpower is an investment to the organization and the ultimate gain is not only the workforce but the Organization too.

‘The new talent is the Company’s greatest asset. Put your time, money, efforts in encouraging them’
