New Delhi, Delhi, India
Sales Enablement & Distribution Strategy Leader with 12+ years of experience across Retail Banking, Life Insurance, Agency & Open Market Channels within the BFSI ecosystem. My focus has consistently been on translating business strategy into scalable field execution, revenue productivity, and structured distribution capability across multi-state operations. Currently with Shriram Life Insurance, I oversee Sales Capability & Zonal Enablement across North India (Delhi, MP, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Punjab, Haryana, HP, J&K, and Chandigarh), managing regional trainer ecosystems and strengthening onboarding architecture for frontline managers, agency leaders, and partner distribution networks. My role integrates revenue productivity frameworks, MIS-driven performance governance, activation acceleration, and field effectiveness models aligned to business growth priorities. Across prior leadership roles with HDFC Life, SBI Cards, and Calibehr, I have partnered closely with sales and regional business heads to enhance acquisition quality, activation ratios, compliance adherence, and conversion effectiveness through structured enablement and execution oversight. My exposure spans Retail Banking channels, agency-led distribution, DSA networks, and partner-driven sales ecosystems. Beyond operational execution, I have contributed to strategic initiatives including Agency Business Partner (ABP) model strengthening, partner lifecycle governance (M1–M12), compensation-linked productivity frameworks, and annuity product enablement across North India. My approach combines data-backed insights, field immersion, and leadership alignment to drive sustainable revenue growth. I operate at the intersection of Sales Strategy, Distribution Capability, and Revenue Enablement — building high-performance cultures where onboarding, productivity, and governance function as competitive advantages rather than support mechanisms. 📌 Key Expertise: Sales Enablement & Distribution Strategy | Retail Banking & Agency Channels | 9-State Zonal Operations | Revenue Productivity Frameworks | Partner Lifecycle Management | MIS & Performance Governance | Leadership Development | Compliance & Risk Alignment Open to leadership conversations around scaling distribution models, strengthening agency ecosystems, revenue productivity transformation, and capability-led growth within BFSI.
