Senior Leadership Advisory
At work with the Global Medical Affairs Leadership Team at Bayer Consumer Health
“Having been hired to run a struggling consumer products business, I asked Mat to support me through the turnaround. This required recruiting and developing a whole new leadership team, developing a radical consumer and customer-focused strategy, and embedding new operational and behavioral guidelines to ensure successful execution. After three challenging years, our business completed its fourth consecutive quarter of exceeding profit targets and was on a path to sustainable growth. Simultaneously, Mat helped me continuously develop and improve as a leader by consistently providing candid feedback and advice - not just what I want to hear, but what I need to hear!”
