Recognizing the LTEN
Members of the Year
■ By Tim Sosbe
T
he 2nd Annual LTEN
Excellence Awards featured a
few new categories this year,
perhaps most importantly the two
categories recognizing Members of the
Year in both the practitioner and
provider sides of life sciences training.
ese special awards are designed to
honor individual members who've
gone above and beyond to contribute
to LTEN. e five individuals earning
the top honors this year have each in
their own way raised the bar by
selflessly giving back to LTEN for the
good of all members and the wider
industry we all serve.

Vicki Colman
BAYER HEALTHCARE
Member of the Year Practitioner
Vicki Colman
has been an active
member of LTEN
for more than 13
years, and serves
on the LTEN
Advisory Council,
a group that helps
operationalize missions from the
LTEN Board of Directors. As the
associate director, sales training, for
Bayer HealthCare, Colman has
significant experience in life sciences
sales training, and she has brought
this expertise to her work with LTEN.
In addition to serving on the
Advisory Council, Colman also serves
LTEN on the Marketing Committee
and the LTEN Research Panel. She has
also contributed articles for Focus
magazine, shared tips through the
Gotta Tell You column for Bonus
Focus, shares both questions and
answers through the LTEN Chat
Board, reviews potential workshops
for LTEN conferences, led sessions at
the annual conference and provides
input on surveys, prospective
members and program marketing. It's
that commitment to helping others
that earned Colman one of the
inaugural honors in this new category.
"I've had many great mentors,
including Sue Iannone, who recruited
me in from the field and continues to
motivate me, and Mary Myers, who
encourages me to participate and
share my experiences," Colman said.
"I encourage all members, new and
tenured, to raise your hands and
volunteer. Share the word about LTEN
with internal and industry training
colleagues. Network and be involved."
Glen Drummond
DEPOMED
Member of the Year Practitioner
Glen
Drummond, senior
director of
commercial
learning and
development for
Depomed, has
been an active
member of LTEN since 2007, but this
past year has really been a banner. In
the past year, he has joined the LTEN
Research Panel, was selected for the
LTEN Editorial Advisory Board,
served as guest editor for Focus
magazine, helped judge the annual
LTEN Excellence Awards (not this
particular category, of course),
presented a workshop at the annual
conference and was a speaker on an
LTEN member benefits webinar.
Drummond, in short, has
contributed frequently to LTEN,
always helping out when asked and
frequently volunteering and sharing
ideas that make LTEN stronger for all
members. Despite all that, he was
surprised and pleased to hear he'd
been selected as a Member of the Year.
"It was an amazing honor and I'm
completely humbled," Drummond
