Course Description
Today’s organization exists within a network of external partners. If your organization is like many we know, you stand to gain more value from the strategic relationships you hold with your suppliers, customers, unions, joint ventures, or alliance partners.
Therefore, the strategy of connectivity to other people and entities is now crucial for innovation and overall success. Businesses today must propagate connections that provide resources they don’t possess in-house and enable them to move quickly to profit. Conducting business in the twenty‐first century, therefore, requires forming partnerships and strategic alliances—both internally and externally.
This training course will provide effective methods and ideas on how to improve strategic relationships in business.
