• Operationalise a Sales Academy framework, including certification rubrics and status awards.
• Integrate Kaia (conversation intelligence) to identify coaching opportunities from real sales interactions and feed insights into continuous learning programs.
• Ensure all tools are embedded into enablement workflows to maximise adoption and impact.
