Integrated Solutions
People and Culture & Customer Experience
-
"The genesis of this came from the Customer Satisfaction surveys and the implementation of Key Account Teams. One of the conclusions that Key Account managers drew was that they needed to improve their skills because of the many different ways of doing business in a global market. There are 250 teams across the world, built around managers whose teams don’t necessarily report directly to them … there are different functional responsibilities but no one reporting directly. So sometimes there is a conflict between functional issues and customer-specific issues, and managers must find ways to make their influence felt without having any formal authority. It’s a global solution to a global challenge, and it’s about hearing the customer, understanding the need and fulfilling the issues."
