Portrait of Sofia Lindqvist

Sofia Lindqvist

Customer Experience Center Manager

Clinicians remember what they could touch and try, not what they were told.

Key takeaway

Put the product in visitors’ hands early and let their questions shape the rest of the day.

01 / How did you come to run an executive briefing program?

I trained as a biomedical engineer and moved into clinical training. Running hands-on sessions for hospital teams taught me how people learn about new equipment, so leading our experience center was a natural next step.

02 / What does a typical briefing look like at your company?

Visitors are often hospital leaders, procurement teams and clinicians together. A typical day mixes a short strategy discussion with hands-on time in our simulation suite, followed by a session on service and training.

03 / How do you secure time from executives and subject-matter experts?

Our clinical specialists are in high demand, so we plan visits around their schedules and keep their sessions focused on what only they can explain. We record short explainer videos for everything else.

04 / Tell us about one briefing that changed how you work.

A visiting hospital team once spent an hour on a workflow we had planned for ten minutes. It showed us what really mattered to them. We now build agendas with the clinicians’ questions first.

05 / How do you measure whether a briefing worked?

We ask visitors how confident they feel about the solution afterwards, and we follow the tender or purchase decision with the account team.

06 / What tools and processes keep your program running smoothly?

A visit request form with clinical details, a room and equipment booking system, and a checklist for regulatory and hygiene requirements.

07 / What will change about executive briefings in the next few years?

More virtual tours of our facilities, and more visits that bring clinical and financial decision makers into one conversation.

08 / What advice would you give someone just starting in this role?

Spend time with the people who use your products every day. Their questions will make you a far better host.
