Larraine Segil will share some of her insights on ways to discover who the real decision makers are in an organization, how to get their buy-in, tools to support internal relationship analysis and ways to align the objectives of internal cross-functional teams with what is required for alliance success.
Please join us on Thursday, December 4th to hear Larraine Segil speak on, "Internal Alliances."
"In a benchmarking study by the American Productivity Institute in Houston Texas, it was found that the most successful alliances were those that utilized a cross functional team approach and process." Yet, in practice this is more easily said than done. Alliance managers continue to have trouble identifying and getting buy in from the stakeholders that are truly accountable in an organization, versus "all those who say they are accountable." Without buy-in from the right stakeholders the alliance manager cannot deliver what he/she promises, putting the alliance at risk.
