  • Identify key value drivers and help manage to achieve the required results, including adoption of Wolters Kluwer best practices like pricing, sales management and digital marketing.
  • Identify key risks and dependencies leading to slippage from deal-book: key talent attrition, salesforce churn, client attrition, migration of business services etc.
  • Drive alignment between the new entity, the business unit and appropriate Wolters Kluwer functions by assisting in designing/implementing the new organizational model.
  • Analyze financial impact and drive alignment with business plan/budgets.
  • Work with acquiring business units and corporate functions to execute and manage the plan, reporting on key milestones/metrics (financial and other) to help realize the synergies.
