About

Ericsson Market Unit South East Europe (MUSEE) is part of the Ericsson group. Ericsson provide telecommunications equipment and related services to mobile and fixed network operators globally.

Ericsson MUSEE wanted a new way to develop their people and identify potential future leaders. They wanted to create a learning environment that allowed the participants to:

  • Engage emotionally in a challenging experience
  • Take time to reflect on their own behaviours
  • Focus on personal growth for career development.

Impact Italia and Ericsson MUSEE worked in partnership to create an innovative and challenging programme focussing on personal and professional development. Pre-event the programme included 360° feedback, MBTI and a session with an Impact coach. During the two and a half day programme the participants took part in a series of experiential projects that included ethical dilemmas and an ‘in-tray’ exercise.

"Our new programme was a great success. The participants were deeply involved and gained awareness and motivation about ‘who I am’ and ‘what I want to change/achieve’. Many have said this was the most memorable development event they’ve ever participated in." - Piero Beltrame, HR Development, Ericsson MU South East Europe

"An overall culture change was needed to ensure that the leadership development solution offered by Impact, gained traction beyond the training days. Management behaviour change is critical to ensuring we are able to retain the right skill base to deliver new services in a rapidly changing media world. Coaching for Success, and its aligned leadership expectations are critical to
improving our managers, therefore our talent and then our service to audiences."

"I was quite sceptical about the merits of a programme like this so approached it with some reservations. However, right from the start I enjoyed the whole experience. It was challenging mentally, physically and emotionally and I found I was stretched in every direction. As a result, I learned a lot about myself but also about my colleagues, most of whom I was meeting for the first time."

"When they finished, I had a different bunch of people in front of me. There was a real sense of connection, a real sense of belonging; there was an incredible amount of ownership, and I get goosebumps just talking about it."
