Sales and Service, as a vital pivot of the economy, has been making a preponderant contribution to national GDP worldwide. Accordingly, this segment is expected to have a continued need for specialized talent who are geared to serve different sectors, consistent with the complexity introduced by the emergence of tech-dependent sectors such as quick serve-commerce, a large and diverse customer base, higher customer expectations, and newer channels of sales and service that go beyond the physical environment.

The Career Track in Sales & Service is a power-packed learning opportunity for students of PGDM aspiring to step into the exciting world of customer-facing and channel-facing roles. Our endeavor in this program is two-fold. First, provide best-in-class learning opportunities to prepare the students through a carefully curated curriculum, details of which you would find in this brochure. Second, offer ‘plug and play’ talent to the industry that is ready to take responsibility from the moment they step into an organization, much unlike commonplace management programs from which fresh pass-outs require a long investment in training before they are ready to deliver. At the centre of this Career Track is role-based readiness, in which a conscious attempt has been made to map the competencies with the critical skills required for each role bucket, and academic interventions have been mapped to prepare the student for such roles. The coursework in this program is delivered by very renowned domain specialist faculty.

A very important component of Sales & Service Career Track is Learning by Solving. Groups comprising of faculty members and students, don the hat of consultants to work on real business problems sponsored by the industry and propose solutions in a time-bound manner that fit the needs of the sponsoring organizations. In the process, it provides an invaluable learning opportunity to the students.

It is our pleasure to invite you to look at the Sales & Service Career Track at JAGSoM in greater detail in the subsequent pages and to partner with us to source your talent from this PGDM Career Track.

The main focus of Curriculum 4.0 is to groom T-shaped professionals for new age roles in new age industries.

As illustrated in the figure above, the top bar of the ‘T’ represents the broad skills such as the people skills, the social skills, and an appreciation of multi-functional capabilities and how the functional areas play among themselves.

Almost one third of the total credits in the entire PGDM program is assigned to practice courses. The Practice Courses are ‘Hands – On’ and serve to ensure that students get ready for Industry 4.0.

The Majors, Minors and the Career Tracks make up the Vertical bar of the ‘T’.

In order to ensure that studentsare ready for Industry 4.0,Curriculum 4.0 includesCareer Tracks aligned to their professional goals.

The Curriculum 4.0 of JAGSoM includes 4 Majors – Marketing, Finance, Analytics & Digital Business and HR, as well as 7 Career Tracks in MarTech, Sales & Service, FinTech, Capital Markets, Banking, Business Analytics and Digital HR.

Integrated Pathway for ‘Learning by Solving’

JAGSoM’sCurriculum 4.0 is delivered through the unique pedagogy of ‘Learning by Solving’ where students work in groups to solve real life problems supported by Industry partners and mentored by domain specialist faculty.

The pedagogy of ‘Learning by Solving’ is operationalized by an integrated pathway consisting of 3 Key Interventions, in which every student at JAGSoM’s PGDM program participates.

Research/Innovation Incubation (RI/II): Students work in small groups either on Research Projects or Start-Up Ideas, under the guidance of faculty mentors.

In the Research Incubation practice course, the focus is on research topics that impact practice where students get an in-depth understanding of various domains through sector and company analysis. The Innovation Incubation practice course is aimed at developing the entrepreneurial mindset of students and at providing them a structured path to creating and launching their own startups.

Career Track Program & Request for Problem (RFP) Project: The same student groups from the Research Incubation and Innovation Incubation practice courses then move on to work on a live industry project in the Career Track program. Students select a Career Track aligned to their professional goals and do a deep dive immersion to acquire the required competencies and critical skills to become industry ready. Career Tracks are offered to students in MarTech, Sales & Service, FinTech, Capital Markets, Banking, Business Analytics and HR-Digital Transformation.

The ‘Request for Problem’ (RFP) project is an integral component of the ‘Career Track’ Program. Each year, JAGSoM invites industry partners to refer business problems that they are currently facing which student consulting teams help to solve, each led by a fulltime faculty member (or an interdisciplinary team of faculty members).

Industry Internship Program (IIP): The final step in the pathway is a 3-month long Industry Internship where the students intern with new-age companies to get hands-on experience. The IIP is an intensive immersion, enabling the students to apply the domain knowledge acquired in Research/Innovation Incubation, Career Track and RFP projects, while also understanding real-world industry applications.
