Eric LAMBERT
I have built my successful executive career in the medical fields on 3 foundations:
1. I am patient centric and not product focused, this is where I bring the expertise
2. the team is the main asset whom can ensure the alignment between patient’s needs /benefits with technical innovation. Coaching them is my passion
3. Smart KPIs is the way we can ensure we are on track on building/solidifying our customer relationships.
Words that define me are : passion, curiosity, inventing, empowerment, looking at the extra mile, accountability and finally most important making an impact.
