The sales force is basically a done deal. They will tweak borders this summer but it is not rocket science. All sales reps will be trained on all brands. Not saying everyone will be weighted each POA on all brands but can be if necessary.
There is one business unit manager that will handle all business in all the zip codes they own. The BUM or DBM manages 5-6 Diabetes reps, 4 OCS and hybrid educators. The footprint eliminates head count from diabetes and adds to obesity, almost doubling share of voice for a much bigger pot of obesity lives.
Managers get rated and placed by the usual criteria and displaced DCS reps get moved into OCS roles which are no longer speciality. Displaced reps/managers can repost for any vacancies. This likely grows additional districts and two regions nationally.
plan on this dropping late summer with specifics for placements delivered November timeframe. They want to make sure focus is on brand and no one stops working until December break.
First POA January 2025, we are in new modernized alignments.
