In every profession, in every work. You sometimes need to surface for a breath of air, get inspired and energized. Never stop learning and keep your mind open for new thoughts and ideas. The time I’ve spent with Anoop Nathwani and Peter Simoons was an investment, not just for the company by providing me the right tools, methods and mindset for successfully alliances. It was also an investment in myself, to focus on the “Why” and re-discover the passion of alliances work.

We take an adaptive approach to learning in our masterclass sessions.

This allows us to dive deeper into the topics that are relevant to the circumstances that you and your fellow participants are facing.

Based on the unique composition of people in the online classroom, we discuss not only the tools and practices, but also the ‘soft elements’ of alliances – such as culture and behavior.

The workshop was an eye-opener for me. Not just the structure and work methods but mostly the wealth of experience used to reflect on your own situation and uncover areas for improvement.
