Edwin Scheperman, external sales trainer, Improving Sales
I have been working with Leon on the Sales Excellence Program BEST for several years. Within the challenging environment of the airline industry Leon plays a key role in the program. With maximum dedication and persistence, As program leader he is responsible for the implementation of effective sales processes and the development of effective sales management. It is also a pleasure to work with him. He has an open personality and a positive mindset. He values constructive feedback and is not ‘afraid’ to give feedback to people if he feels it is useful.

In the period 2013-2016 Leon worked closely together with me and my colleagues in Air France KLM Learning & Development. Leon at that time was program manager Sales Excellence Europe and in this role our client. What really differentiates Leon is his drive, his perseverance and he just keeps doing. He makes sure the program objectives are achieved. He communicates, improves and when people or teams become complacent, he calls or visits and reconnects them to the objectives. And on the other hand, when teams outperform, he is proud and he shares successes. Leon can definitely stand the heat and the loneliness of ‘running in front’ and being an innovator. And the great thing is – if you provide feedback or bring in ideas different from his own, he will always listen and learn.
