What you will learn

Our masterclass is based on the skills and competencies that the Association of Strategic Alliance Professionals (ASAP) has found critical to the success of collaborative business relationships.

This masterclass guides you through the entire alliance lifecycle,
covering elements such as…

  • Alliance-specific strategy
  • Analyzing and selecting partners
  • Building trust and creating value
  • Operational planning
  • Alliance structuring and execution
  • Launch and management
  • Transform, innovate, exit

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.

How it works

This Alliances & Partnerships Masterclass will take place online, using Zoom video technology that allows us to present and discuss with you like in a live classroom. Scenario group work will be done by using virtual breakout rooms.

This will be a fully packed and intense class and hence we have split the Masterclass over three education sessions of 3 hours each.

In between the Masterclass sessions you will have time to apply the learning to your situation. Also you will have our unlimited support via email and in the Masterclass discussion group.

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.
