TEAMWORK

  • 2019, I partnered with Nitin Gupta on the Olumiant Payer Brand team to help his team better understand the need for a multi payer
    pull through tool for the sales force.
  • 2012, Lilly Canada Manager Lou Kotsopoulas spent a day with me in the field. He was interested to learn more about how we
    partnered with customers in the nursing home environment and how that would translate in the Canadian nursing home
    environment. After watching me with my customers and discussing various disease state topics around depression and
    osteoporosis he invited me to lead a conference call with his senior care pilot team.
  • 2012, Organized a national Senior Care audio-conference on key points in the Humalog Package Insert. I invited Milena out of the
    Northeast district to lead the call due to her diabetes knowledge. The point of this call was to start strengthening our knowledge
    to a higher level around the MOA of meal time insulins, sliding scales and potential issues around hypoglycemia and
    hyperglycemia. This call led to more confidence in senior care reps having a VBS centered call on the use of meal time insulins
    and ultimately the benefits of Humalog in the nursing home environment.
  • 2011, Invited by John Crawford to share my learnings as a rep around the transition from STP to VBS with the Cardio
    Management Team. The feedback was very positive, which led to Rick Bookout (Cardio Manager in Dallas) spending a day with me
    in the field to see VBS in action. Samory German, who was the Cardio Associate Consultant and led the VBS workshop, said the
    he saw “exceptional leadership in the customer value chain” and that we made a significant impact across divisions.
  • 2009, Invited by Management team to examine what psych reps needed to be successful selling in CMHC environment. Led an
    area wide conference call for the private practice psych reps entitled “Inner workings of the MHMR system”. Call designed to
    educate office based reps on 3 main items: (1) service packages &MHMR language, (2) Tx algorithms and (3) leveraging key
    influencers. Resulted in several success stories which enabled reps to engage in a better VBS dialogue
