In this episode, my guest talks about how we need to drive customers down the path to mutual value co-creation. We talked about Strategic Account, or as we call it here in the UK, Key Account Management.

Harvey Dunham is the Managing Director and has led for 6 years the Strategic Account Management Association SAMA. Prior to this, he worked at Schneider Electric for 35 years, starting as a Sales Engineer and retiring as a Global Solutions VP for the Life Sciences and Retail segments.
