    It was decidedly uninspiring. Not one new thing that affects field sales in a positive way. New information from ACC could have been disseminated via TEAMS. No time allotted for area or regional collaboration. Cheap food. Just as close to people all week in meetings as on the airplanes and they did their best to make sure we were mixed up and exposed awkwardly close to the maximum number of people. No swag, not much for celebration. Not as bad as Dallas last year, but also seemed demotivating to have the budget meeting without much appreciation for the people who generated those record sales numbers. Meh.

    Meeting wasn’t horrible, hotel was clean, nice to get some sun, although brief. Food was definitely sub par & the amount provided on the first night was especially egregious since it was a travel day. The daily agendas were typical pharma, nice not to have our manager breathing down our necks. The managed care stuff was interesting, but I don’t see how that’s going to help Leqvio prescriptions. What can I say? It was certainly better than Dallas in the general vibe. I think we are all spoiled and I know there are billions of people on this planet who would trade places with any of us.

    Just me over here wondering how many people are so obtuse as to think everyone be coast to coast lives thirty minutes from an airport with a morning direct flight that only takes a couple of hours….. almost everyone I talked to either left their house at 4 am to make it to Orlando in time for stupid general session and appetizers at screaming loud dinner or flew in the day before.

    Did you watch Des’ video? His key takeaways included…..drumroll please……culture.
    Amazing and trending up.
    Collaboration. He popped into rooms to watch cross functional teams collaborate.
    Did any of you get time with your cross functional team to collaborate? We didn’t. We never had area or regional collaboration time. We didn’t even really see our cross functional partners. Perhaps what he saw was training meeting mixed with other people’s cross functional partners….we certainly weren’t collaborating on a real account.

    Poor little bitch. You cry on here over and over with the same pathetic narrative. You are powerless and destined to be somebody’s Pharma bitch. Deep down you know you like it so stop faking the tough talking persona. Bend over on command.

    How to run a good meeting.

    1) Arrive Monday anytime no welcome meeting. Dinner on your own.
    2) No Role plays waste of time nobody learns anything.
    3) End every day at 4:30 hard stop. Time to call family,work out or just decompress.
    4) Give a decent gift the company makes enough money.
    5) Only one dinner with entire sales force.
    6) Free night no mandatory team dinner. Managers stop staying is voluntary it's not.
    7) Keep Dez off the stage. He has no it factor.
    8) Announce some big contest to earn more money. Those seem to be gone.
    9) Friday morning off. Most of us get back late at night.

    You want to change culture and get people motivated start here. I am sure everyone can add a lot more to my list. In 1,2,3 some moron will say we are spoiled reps. I say shut the fuck up,

    This argument is an unfortunate reminder that C.P. is the septic tank of public discourse. Did you both graduate with honors from Trump University?

    Eh careful muffin man. That could easily out source your job as a walking product billboard to a temp agency paying $15 an hour.
