PRODUCTTRAINING

cution of marketing projects, we miss a signi cant opportunity to improve not only the training, but also the actual materials delivered to the eld. To develop this kind of relationship with marketing takes signi cant e ort and a dedicated commitment of time on the part of the trainer and their leadership. It generally starts with a leader to lead discussion on roles, responsibilities and expectations for training and marketing; and o en will require multiple follow-ups to reinforce these and ensure the trainer is being included in appropriate meetings. Once training leadership has established the foundation, it takes the trainer to execute and build their credibility and value to the brand. Once that is done, generally the biggest challenge is managing the brands expectations because

they’ll want the trainer involved in many more projects. While resources and time are very limited, working hard to be a true partner with our marketing colleagues adds value to the materials developed by brand and increases the quality of the

training we can develop, ultimately bene ting our sales force while increasing the value we bring to our overall organizations. In this market, can we a ord to not do everything possible to demonstrate the value we provide to our organizations? I
