Carlos prepared to discuss with Rank Xerox's Managing Director (Bernard Fournier) Wave I's success, Wave II's failure, and lessons learned about best-practice transfer.
Fournier rejected Carlos’ request to re-implement Wave II. Carlos visited Colombia and Dubai to determine whether to apply their telephone selling approach (“Telemarketing”) elsewhere. Carlos had to decide whether to tell Fournier of Dubai’s revolutionary tool that could transform Rank Xerox’s sales operations or put the idea aside.
