Executive Summary
- Most healthcare organizations fail at execution, not strategy.
- Most execution fails because of the quality of the field force people, where the rubber hits the road.
- Traditional Sales Force Effectiveness (SFE) tools track activity but don't drive intrinsic motivation.
- The MAP Framework (Purpose → Mastery → Autonomy) bridges this gap.
- This article provides concrete tactics for each pillar, not just theory.
- Success stories from pharma are used illustratively, not as definitive case studies.
