In this moment, it seemed advisable to have in-company formation for the bank's management, specifically one based on simulation to guarantee practicality. We started the task in 2006, partnering with BTS, and starting with the top 300 managers of the bank. The experience has been a great success. Internal evaluation of participants rated the program as one of the best courses offered by the bank in recent years. As a consequence, the bank decided to extend the formation during 2008 to lower rank management. At BBVA, we are very glad about our decision to count on BTS in our formative endeavour.” said MR Gert Pregel Grohmann, Managing for Value Director, BBVA. BTS has developed a customized simulation around the managing for value process and metrics which allowed the target audience to participate in a session experimenting and experiencing the way one can create and destroy value in the financial sense from the operational decisions made on the day to day activities. “We are proud that this well recognized bank has chosen to engage BTS and entrust us with such an important and wide-reaching initiative,” says Dr. Philios Andreou, CEO BTS Iberia and Mexico. “This is strong evidence of our ability to deliver top quality projects to one Europe's leading banks and our deep capability in areas of strategic alignment and business acumen, leadership and management, and sales.” For more information, please contact; Dr. Philios Andreou, CEO BTS Iberia and Mexico Phone +34 9 4423 5594 Mobile +34 667 50504 E-mail philios.andreou@bts.com Thomas Ahlerup Senior Vice President Investor and Corporate Communications BTS Group AB Direct +46-8-5870 7002 Mobil +46-768-966 300 E-mail thomas.ahlerup@bts.com About BTS Group AB BTS partners with leading companies to accelerate change and improve business results.
