Life Sciences Industry Leaders including AstraZeneca & Nestlé Health Science Discuss 3 Ways to Impact the Bottom Line
Having the right learning retention strategy is critical to post drug launch success. However, today’s fragmented and complicated pharma training environments do not support efficient and continuous learning, making it difficult to effectively train sales reps to be successful in the field.
By consolidating and simplifying the initial training process, creating digestible content for easier consumption and better recall, and providing access to specific information as needed, reps are more likely to retain what they’ve learned and get out into the field faster.
In this webinar we will discuss how organizations can tie training and learning behavior directly to performance, by providing sales reps with what they need, when they need it, and how they want it, to impact the bottom line.
Join us as we explore the top three ways to speed quota attainment through a modernized training and sales enablement approach:
- Strategic planning pre launch, for post launch success
- Learning retention strategy based on pull-through post launch
- Correlate training to behavior change leading to performance growth

James Harper, Founder & Managing Director, twentyeightb
After 17 years working in various Pharma sales and marketing in-house and agency roles, in 2010 I decided to combine my knowledge and skills with my love of technology to found twentyeightb. Having carried the bag as a rep I’ve established a well-rounded view of the pharmaceutical sales and marketing space, which has led the company to our core focus of empowering the multichannel rep through impactful digital sales tools.
I have been fortunate enough to collaborate with Veeva on several field team enablement white papers and projects, helping to cement our positioning as experts in optimising the use of their CRM and CLM solutions by brand and sales teams. This passion for collaborating with like-minded individuals and being generous with my time has led to me taking on the role of chair of the PM Society Digital Interest Group.
