Multi-month transformational work.
Here's what it looks like in practise.
Three engagements, one pattern: Diagnose. Design. Deliver.

I. From Piecemeal Initiatives to Strategic Clarity

The Challenge

A medical device organisation with an entrenched 30-year toxic culture. The Global VP had been working on its transformation for two years, but piecemeal. He sensed something wasn't working. Initiatives were scattered. Progress felt fragile. Things were moving, yet not quite progressing. The path forward was unclear. He couldn't quite articulate what he needed.

He brought the problem. I brought the brief.

This is more common than most leaders admit. You can't see the frame when you're inside the picture. And even when you can name the problem, knowing what to commission to solve it is another skill entirely. Sometimes the first piece of work is defining what the work needs to be.

The Work

The first job was to help the VP articulate what he needed into a project scope, then craft strategic goals and deliverables to address it:

1. The Target—Diagnosed the single biggest gap stalling the culture transformation

2. The Fix—Designed and delivered a targeted strategy to close it

3. The Blueprint—Built a comprehensive roadmap and 'big picture' architecture for sustainable culture change

The Shift

From piecemeal initiatives to strategic clarity. A VP who could finally see the whole board, with a roadmap to move every piece, and a framework to sustain the culture.

II. From Firefighting to Forward-thinking

The Challenge

A medical device company operating across four APAC markets walked into the pandemic with a sales organisation under strain. Reps were dejected, demotivated, and looking to their leaders to solve every problem. Leaders, in turn, were stuck in reactive firefighting, putting out the same fires again and again, with no time to actually lead.

The needs were clear: develop the salesforce, develop the leaders. The harder question was how, in a region this diverse, during a year this disrupted.

The Work

A two-track engagement, designed and delivered in parallel for sales & leadership capability:

1. Sales Capability: Diagnosed capability gaps across the four markets. Built onboarding and foundational sales training for new reps. For the broader team, designed a customised upskilling programme synthesising best practices from leading frameworks, culminating in a new selling model purpose-built for Key Account Managers (KAMs)

2. Leadership Capability: Designed and delivered a leadership development and coaching programme for sales managers and directors, focused on the shift from doing the work to coaching the work

3. Embedded Sales & Leadership Coaching: Coached sales teams and their leaders through across all four markets, so the learning landed in the day job, not just the classroom

The Shift

Sales reps moved from disengaged to self-driven, owning their problems, generating their own solutions, bringing innovation back to their accounts. Leaders moved from firefighting to coaching, building independent teams capable of sustaining their own performance. Underneath it all: a structured capability pipeline running from new rep onboarding through to KAM-level selling, and a leadership bench developed across four markets.

III. From Fragmented Role Definitions to a Unified Framework

The Challenge

The Global Medical Affairs function needed a refreshed competency framework to clarify roles, development paths, and capability standards. But structure alone won't stick. They needed alignment across global leadership, and needed leaders to own how the framework would roll out locally. A document handed down from headquarters wouldn't change anything. A framework and implementation plan the leaders built themselves, will.

The Work

A six-month structural design, alignment and implementation engagement, delivered in two phases:

1. The Framework: Partnered with HR and Medical Affairs to research, design, and finalise a new competency framework specific to Medical Affairs, aligned to their vision, mission, and values.

2. The Workshop: Designed and facilitated a pivotal 2-day session that brought Medical Affairs leaders from across US and APAC, together to align on the framework and craft a plan for global deployment.

The Shift

From fragmented role definitions to a unified framework with leader-owned rollout. Clear capability standards. Transparent development paths. And an implementation plan the leaders built themselves.

This is the work we do
