A Typical In-Company Alliance Masterclass Outline

Throughout the day, we will discuss tools, best practices, culture and behaviour (the latter being the so-called “soft elements” of alliances).

This will enable your team to apply their learnings directly to their work in managing partners for immediate improvement in alliance performance.

Additionally, the class delivers the following:

  • Promotes experiential learning by focusing on the application of skills and knowledge in case scenario class exercises
  • Provides a common vocabulary and glossary of terms as commonly used in the profession
  • Integrates your experience into the course through discussion and application of Masterclass learnings

This outline covers the full alliance lifecycle.

It allows ample room for extensive discussion to delve deeper into the topics that are relevant to the participants.

Interactive And Problem Solving

We designed this Masterclass as an interactive format, so that participants apply best practices and principles to alliance management situations.

That way they choose the best course of action when solving a difficult situation.

Its focus is very much on team problem solving, within the context of case study scenarios, stimulating the situations that alliance managers face every day and challenging participants to apply their knowledge to those situations.

Tools Provided

  • Scenarios – We built the course around experiential scenario learning. We will review concepts and tools. Much of the learning comes from interaction with your teammates in solving issues presented in these scenarios. Scenarios represent multiple industry examples, but the learnings can be applied across all industries and alliance types.
  • Worksheets and Templates – Many tools are provided within the context of the Masterclass’ materials.
