Proven track record

During my years at 3M, I managed various projects and businesses in a local, regional or EMEA context.

A few examples (you can find more details my linkedIn profile www.linkedin.com/in/marleen-boleyn-379b12b

• As local and regional leader of the Health care business, I reshaped the team from a product focus to a market focus.  Working closely with HR partner.  Thanks to a small acquisition of surgical procedure trays/kits, the local business grew more than double digit.

• I managed several Black Belt Six Sigma projects, with internal and external focus, including a project to improve sales efficiency for a division of Omega Pharma (reduce the admin time and increase number of customer visits). And was caoching and mentoring Green Belts.

• I was leading integration of 3 divisions into 1 for the West Europe area , which laid the foundation for increased sales efficiency, marketing focus and profitable growth

• For Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), as PMO I led the integration of 'Scott Safety', with improved sales and margin immediately after the first year of acquisition, supporting the harmonization of the portfolio and streamlined teams: Manufacturing, Quality, Supply Chain, Sales, Marketing, HR, Finance and Legal. 

• In my last position as sales director for PPE in the Central Europe region, I reformed the team to a clearly defined structure between general sales accounts, key accounts and channel/distribution accounts.  My last major project that I supported as champion, was the divestiture of medical disposable respirators to a distribution partner, after 3M Health Care became Solventum.
