Who is most qualified to be assigned to a business development management trainee as a mentor?

Answer options

• A. HR VP
• B. Sales VP
• C. Executive coach
• D. Corporate training head

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The Sales VP is most qualified to mentor a business development management trainee because they possess direct experience and knowledge related to sales strategies and market development. The HR VP, Executive coach, and Corporate training head may have valuable insights, but they do not have the specific focus on the sales aspect that is crucial for a business development role.
