What we did
The Director of Sales Force Excellence in Switzerland invited Techniques for Change to train his team in Internal Consulting Skills. The team conduct data collection and assessments and then help to implement improvement actions to improve performance. Our MD, Philip Albon worked closely with Medtronic to include live Medtronic case studies in the training. Currently the team are on track to achieve the Diploma in 2013.
“I manage a team of internal consultants who work globally with our Diabetes sales force. This was a great course tailored to fit with our needs. What was excellent was that TFC worked with us to incorporate live Medtronic case examples. This course held here in Switzerland was practical, hands on, fast paced and fun. All of the consulting techniques were useful and we have already deployed a lot of them into our day to day work. We are currently working towards our Consultancy Diploma which is helping us to further embed the learning in our day to day practice.” Xavier ClĂ©ment, Sales Force Excellence Manager, Medtronic
“The restaurant launch exercise was a great and interactive way to bring project planning and risk management techniques to life. The simulation will really make the learning points stay with me for a long time.” Barbara Kropfhaeusser, Coordinator SFE / CE, Medtronic
“Interesting combination of models and practice. Great real life examples. Important for any person who functions as a consultant for internal or external organisation.” Deep Van Dummelen, Senior HR Manager, Medtronic
