Course benefit: |
New to the Channel Enablers’ curriculum, this program offers significant competitive potential for forward-thinking vendors.
Key business benefit outcomes include:
?
A more responsive and competitive channel -Partners who focus on executing the right actions, against the right priorities, at the right time. Partners who do what
they can with what they have when it needs to be done.
Vendors as trusted advisers - This approach enables Channel Managers and other partner-facing professionals to bring significant business value to partners
–without the need for 30 years of business experience. Performance coaching leads to higher degrees of trust and better business performance.
Faster partner enablement - Leading to higher profitability and willingness to invest. Partners who identify what they need to do to succeed and who have a high
degree of commitment to rapidly address enablement issues, achieve return on investment more quickly, are less dependent on vendors, and are better able to
invest and grow as the market opportunities grow.
Increased sales and profitability – Performance coaching between vendors and partners helps identify real priority issues, raise awareness and focus attention,
generate practical solutions, and maximize partner ownership and commitment to execute. It therefore should not be surprising that industry research clearly
demonstrates the huge return on investment that flows from performance coaching.
Greater partner satisfaction - Partner satisfaction naturally flows from closer working relationships and improved business results; but on top of this - people like to
be coached!
A highly differentiated approach - A chance to stand out from the vendor pack in the partner community by equipping field people to deal with real business issues
and develop practical solutions.

Course target: |
The leader, senior manager from multiple departments
|
Course benefit: |
The best partners are sought after by multiple vendors, and prospective channel or alliance partners will sometimes have difficulty choosing between business
propositions put forward by competing vendors. When programs and products are perceived to be similar the Channel Manager’s level of skill and‘professionalism’
may become THE point of difference between productive, revenue-generating partnership, and no partnership at all.
This program helps to build the engagement skills and steps
necessary to:
positively differentiate vendors in the minds of their current and prospective channel and alliance partners
reduce the time and investment necessary to influence partners towards desirable business outcomes
secure the commitments necessary to generate tangible returns
build more resilient relationships at multiple organizational levels
raise partner awareness of the need to change

| The leader/Manager workshops |
|
Course target: |
The leader, senior manager from multiple departments
|
Course benefit: |
The Leader/Manager series helps organizations build the ‘team of teams’ required for exceptional performance, customer service and employee satisfaction. As
teams are created and linked, goals are aligned, and lines of communication are opened throughout the organization.
Senior managers often discover the ‘gold’ they have further down in their organizations as multiple levels work together to achieve organizational outcomes.
A strong side benefit is the degree of mutual understanding and camaraderie established between table team members from across the organization. Bonds
formed under pressure stand the test of time.

Course principles: |
| Workshop Content |
As no two vendor organizations face the exact same multichannel issues or opportunities, Leader/Manager Executive Education programs require a flexible
approach that is highly customized for each client.
Leader/Manager workshops will ideally include managers from right across an organization, and from different levels in the hierarchy, working together in diverse
table groups. The program is normally implemented as two, two day workshops, with some three to six months of practical experience in between.
Leader/Manager part one - Develops competency in the skills and processes required to build and lead an effective and aligned multi-channel team that works
well with other internal and external teams in order to achieve breakthrough results.
Leader/Manager part two – Builds upon material covered in Leader/Manager part one. It examines how benefits described below may be achieved.
Across the two workshop series topics include:
the manager’s role and responsibilities in a multi-channel eco-system
multi-channel leadership situations and needs
teamwork benefits and costs
elements of effective teamwork
establishing goals
the use of power
dealing with and communicating change
building trust
achieving synergy
team based business planning and review
conducting effective meetings
feedback (part one) on personal style
managing team commitments
personal commitments to improvement
Workshop Format and Media
Leader/Manager workshops employ several strategies to maximize learning:
A substantial pre-reading assignment and a pre-work test set the tone, establish the foundation of theory required, and acts as a lasting reference.
A variety of fast, active table team exercises utilize visual, verbal and kinesthetic learning. Case studies, role-plays, tests, debates, active team exercises,
presentations and demonstrations all contribute to an intense and enjoyable learning experience.
A set of highly useful management tools are provided for lasting use in the field. Leader/Manager workshops are designed for between 12 and 18participants.. For
