Dear Sir,
I joined this organisation on Feb'09 as manager- Training and Facilitation. and I was told by the company that they have enough Client base to do business and they are looking for young people who can primarily deliver training and consultation services to their clients (This was what was expected out of me and told when I joined and the same is mentioned in my offer letter as well). In my previous organisation, I was working as Asstt. Manager. Even though they didn't gave me salary hike but I joined as they gave me designation hike.
Now two months after joining this company, I came to know that they have no client base and don't even have training course material to be delivered to their prospect client.
They then told me last month to start doing Business Development through cold calling and generate a business worth 35 Lakhs in the next six months.
Sir, I have never done sales or BD in my entire profesional career. No matter how hard I tried, I have only fixed few meetings. Now the price that we are quoting to our prospect clients in way higher than our competitors in market and they have good content as well.
Now my boss, says I have to put down papers as I am not able to generate the business without giving me any notice to think about.
Sir, My question is that I joined this company as a trainer who will b delivering the training and doing vendor management, training calender booking and content development for their CRT and E-learning portal. Then is it legal for the company to fire me for able to do BD. I am doing my primary job well as and when I am asked for.
The company is renowned corporate house in India.
Sir, Please help me as I got married recently and is not aware of the policies of labour act.And it is hard to get a new job at short notice. I was well established in my previous job but was asked to leave the job on short notice by this company. So, I can no longer go back to m previous organisation as well.
Regards,
Jahanzeb Khan
