"I am passionate about the positive impact Solution Selling can have on any business – Seeking value in your interactions with customers will mean they feel your genuine interest in helping them be successful. At that point they no longer resist being 'sold to' and embrace the desire to buy. Learning should seek to be an investment, that is why I believe in anchoring any learning through coaching. Supporting those we work with in driving change, embedding the culture and behaviours to underpin long-term sustainable profitability and deliver a return on that investment."

"When I was a kid, people called me a born sales person because I easily made social connections & because I was always positive. The reality bumped in when later, I realized that only social skills are not enough. So I went searching for methodology, sales skills, and personal development. What I discovered is that my greatest passion is to coach & motivate others to improve their personal growth."

"Based on our professional experience in different branches and cultures, we quickly understand what is going on in an organization. And we also know that change starts at the top. Senior management must have a more extensive knowledge of these programmes and be capable of applying them more effectively than their teams. As a result, they are not only capable of assuming a coaching role, they also ensure continuous implementation of the methods. After all, enthusiasm is highly contagious. Something which we also see during the training courses and coaching initiatives. Furthermore, our customers see this reflected in their results."

"With more than 20 years of influencing and negotiation experience, I have always been attracted by situations that require result orientation, excellent analytical power, the skill to relate easily to people and last but not least, creativity. Whether it relates to managing complicated change programs, either as a program manager or as an executive in the line, or running a major, 200 FTE+ cost center and negotiate proper budget allocation and improve customer behavior, all these situations have one thing in common: it’s about negotiation and influencing. Their complexity is a function of the number of stakeholders, their (cultural) backgrounds and hierarchical level, the time available and the ambition levels. The more challenging, the better I will do."

"My passion in sales lies in the strategic approach to the market and customer. Determining the goal, strategy and tactics before working with the customer with genuine interest in search of the solution that helps the customer achieve their objectives. The key to sales success lies in being able to position yourself as a problem solver by putting the customer first, challenging their thinking process and exposing latent pain. During my 25 years of experience in sales and sales management, within different organizations, market segments, cultures and countries, I have learned that good sales methodologies work universally. Putting the customer first and understanding works always and everywhere. I have had the privilege that in my previous responsibility as sales director within an international organization in the chemical industry, Hovingh & Partners trained my sales team and management in several countries and developed it into a customer-oriented organization. Through this unique experience I understand how the sales methodologies work in practice, what the impact could be on the business and the possible obstacles that can arise during the implementation and coaching of the individual and the sales team."

“Anchoring strengths, seeing participant’s eyes light up as they gain insight on new techniques, integrating these tools as reflexes in their daily realities, enabling people to gain autonomy in reaching personal and professional goals and aligning training with company vision : this has been both a challenge and a passion as a corporate trainer and actor since 2002. However H&P has given me a new and greater understanding and respect for the sales process and it’s players. After more than 20 years in sales and negotiation in as many industries, professions and national cultures, I look forward to empowering others as much as it empowered me : to really create value for their clients and play on a even field.“

Our methodologies are very practical and therefore deliver surprising results quickly.

Just when everything runs smoothly, it is useful to invest in outside support."

"For more than 20 years, sales has been the common thread of my career. Along the way, I have had many successes but I have also failed on several occasions. While failure and learning to deal with it is part of our lives, it is still important to minimise failure. Especially when it has a significant economic or human impact. Missing deals and getting "no" won't normally cost human lives. It is, however, throwing money away once failure becomes structural and is not learned from. Not only does the company lose money but also the salesperson misses out on variable pay. Customers who first say "yes" and then later realise they should have said "no" leave and often never come back and that too is a huge waste of money. Over the past few years, I have often had and taken the opportunity to save sales professionals, entrepreneurs, business leaders, students, etc. from making my own mistakes and those of people around me. This has given them and me so much satisfaction that I decided to make it my full-time profession."
