“I have worked with Sequoia for the past 4 years on a number of programmes, ranging from 3 day workshops that embrace Management Drives as the key to unlocking behavioural change within delegates, to more recently starting a Train the Trainer programme - using Management Drives understanding to embed learning programmes.

These have been highly successful and it has been a great pleasure working with a very professional and knowledgeable team."

“We have known and worked with Sequoia since about 2011. It has always been a great experience working with Steve and the rest of the Sequoia team who strive to always deliver a tailored solution to meet your individual needs.

While small, through leadership, knowledge and personal relationships, Sequoia always seem to create an extension of your company; they really care what the client's needs are and ensure these are met. Humble, technically sound, collaborative style of working and a connected partner who is every bit as interested in delivering your goals as you are, is who they are."

Chief Supply Chain Officer, Campari Group

“The Sequoia team have consistently demonstrated a clear understanding of our needs and tailored training and support materials to our precise requirements.

The delivery consistently hit the mark for the participants with Sequoia’s passion for the subject matter really showing through."

“As Planning Director in charge of the Planning Learning Framework for Unilever Europe, I have worked with Sequoia in a series of workshops.

Sequoia is a professional organisation that I have enjoyed working with. They lead every one of their workshops with high levels of enthusiasm and dynamism, making them an unforgettable experience for the participants whilst delivering state of the art teaching."

“I was doubtful that this would be beneficial, given the degree of focus we had already put into optimising the production line. I was wrong. Sequoia's CBS approach took complexity offline, improved availability and released additional capacity."

Senior Vice President of Supply Chain, B Braun

“We have worked together for over 10 years across multiple areas of PepsiCo’s businesses in Europe and globally with the concentrate team. Steve and the Sequoia team always bring pragmatic and realistic outcomes, built from really understanding the client’s challenges and offering meaningful solutions. Their other strength is having a passion for seeing the solutions delivered to drive the client's desired outcome."

“RS had a clear objective to increase the understanding of where supply planners fitted into the heart of the supply chain and to increase the skills with specific focus on technical supply chain knowledge and behavioural skills to empower, investigate and challenge.

It was a pleasure working with the enthusiastic and knowledgeable team at Sequoia, who created a successful tailored 3 day programme that managed to deliver the objectives in a fun, informative and interactive way."

“Pernod Ricard have been working with Sequoia for the last 10 years across our Brand Companies and Market Companies. Over this time, we have worked on many successful projects covering people, process and tools, including: inventory optimisation focused on end to end visibility; S&OP bench marking and improvement programmes; support and development of line scheduling and planning."

Global Supply Chain Director, Pernod Ricard

"Unilever ran a European Plan Programme with Sequoia over a number of years that touched many planners. It was a key course in establishing the skills required to confidently deliver effective demand and supply planning, which aligned with the business’ move into APICS accreditation. 

The combination of the skills programme with leadership elements woven through it, provided an opportunity for planners to gain greater insights into themselves and their key stakeholders.

Back in the business, this facilitated better decision making through ‘conversations that matter’. Sequoia’s understanding of our business and ability to address theoretical issues through practical examples really helped to embed new approaches."

Head of Supply Chain Academy, Unilever

"Working with Sequoia gave us a fresh perspective on how to improve our supply chain capability.

The training on planners’ technical and influencing skills helped support the development of our planning community whilst the focus on better use of data was a catalyst for setting up an Analytics team and the development of a sophisticated segmentation model which has significantly improved our inventory health."
