description

I edit MedicinMan, India’s 1st Online Magazine for Field Force Excellence – A learning and development and career advancement resource, read by over 40,000 pharma professionals. MedicinMan completed one year in June 2012 and this was celebrated with India’s first -of-its-kind Field Force Excellence program FFE 2012 attended by over 80 executives from sales, marketing, HR, training and SFE from 24 companies.I wrote “HardKnocks for the GreenHorn” based on my own experience of being pushed into field sales without any training or orientation. HardKnocks for the GreenHorn is an ideal starter-kit for any Medical Rep when he just joins the profession or the company. That’s the time he is most receptive to learning. After a few months of being knocked around he forms his own opinion of what works and what does not work and his mind is closed to any new learning.The same is true about Front-line Managers. They need to immerse in learning about their new role, which has nothing to do with what got them promoted. “What Got You Here Won’t Get You There” says the title of one of the best leadership books by Marshall Goldsmith.I wrote “ SuperVision for the SuperWiser Front-line Manager” for first time managers. It is an ideal learning and development resource for any aspiring Medical Rep or newly promoted manager to prepare for his future role. Senior managers responsible for field force excellence will benefit by reading and using these two books to align their field force and achieve commercial excellence.My third book Repeat Rx is for professionals involved in customer-facing roles and for Sales Training/HR/SFE managers to understand - How to develop individuals from Amateurs to Achievers through a process of Calling>Connecting>Consulting>Collaborating.I also conduct skill development and behavioral programs from entry level to senior management based on need assessment and objectives/desired outcomes of the company. Psychometrics is an essential tool to understand oneself and understanding self and others can bring about behavioral changes needed to succeed as teams.

*Sales managers who thrive in today’s marketplace

are adept at sales change management. Sales change

management is defined as the ability to continuously

drive results through others in a dynamic, ever chang-

ing environment. The cause of the change is not im-

portant. Whatever the cause - new competitors, price

wars, employee turnover, mergers, revised territories,

additional regulatory demands, new strategic direc-

tions, etc., effective sales change managers deliver the

expected outcome.

Speaker Anup Soans is a speaker at several national and international conferences and seminars.

Most recently he was the lead faculty at Pharma Sales Force Effectiveness and Automation

Bio My passion for developing people became a profession when I began work with Crestcom International

as a Facilitator of their globally recognized MDP and LDP programs. Prior to that I began my career as a

Medical Rep, Oncology Product Specialist and Front-line Manager in Pharma and Devices.

It was during my stint as a Facilitator for the internationally renowned “Bullet Proof Manager” program

and later with BlessingWhite, and Psytech that I gained insight into the fundamentals of Learning and

Development - training, facilitating and coaching to bring about transformational learning that leads to

change in behavior and adoption of new skills.

I have been an L & D program facilitator for entry level professionals to CEOs across industries from

2004. To supplement the practical understanding with theoretical framework, I went back to school to

complete a fulltime MBA program in HRM at age 46 in 2007.

Prior to L & D, I was into Medico-Marketing/CME and worked with all major pharma/devices companies

in developing promotional inputs and conceptualizing and executing medico-marketing campaigns as

Executive Director and COO of IJCP Publications. Later, I was Vice President of Quintessence Sciences,

the world’s largest knowledge management and publisher for dental surgeons.
