”We have been working with Mercuri globally for the last three year developing, delivering and measuring the business impact of the NegGOtiate2WIN training program. Using Mercuri’s core concepts as the basis, we have adapted and tailored the practice elements, role plays and simulated situations, to be 100% applicable throughout the business, sectors, countries and cultures. Working this way has also enabled the program to resonate across the full spectrum of our global sales organisation from Key Account Directors to new starters in the sales teams. We are delighted to announce that this has been one of our award-winning programs,” said Rainer Stern, Global Vice President Sales Acceleration and Leadership Programs of SAP.
We are proud of the fact SAP and Mercuri International has won the Silver for 2 consecutive years for this innovative project.
