Crafting Collaborations

For managers, marketers, business owners and entrepreneurs who want to understand how to craft strategic collaborations to innovate, develop new products or grow new markets.

Understand why a start-up mentality is crucial to collaboration success.

Be prepared for threats and roadblocks that commonly emerge in new partnerships.

Establish new partnerships or get your existing partnerships working better.

Reduce risk to the business and reputational damage from a failed collaboration.

Crafting Collaborations builds real skills and insights into how to design successful partnerships and innovate as a result.

You will develop a greater understanding of what collaborations are in a disruptive market and how to leverage them.

By developing an in-depth understanding of collaboration readiness, you will be able to identify skill gaps and risks well in advance and know how to best proceed into a collaborative agreement.

You will find out how to increase the chances of successful collaborations and minimise waste in terms of time, talent and money. So that when you say, “we need to collaborate” you can be confident that you have the skills, resources and processes to back it up.

Working together, we will design a personalised and specific Collaboration Activation Plan that allows you to fully utilise the creativity, ideas and tactics gained throughout the course.
