Leadership and Skills in Managing an Alliance in a Matrix Organization
ASAP Webinar Series
Overview
In "matrix organizations"–those working on multiple, complex, often large-scale projects with at least two chains of command–building and maintaining the alliance function "all comes down to leadership." This is one of the key observations Cindy Warren will share during her upcoming webinar.
In an enterprise running multiple projects across multiple functions–and with multiple partners–who will tie it all together? Who will serve as the voice of the alliance and be the advocate for the partner, as needed?
The alliance manager, of course.
Join us as Cindy shares the challenges, issues, and important insights that come with matrix organizations and their increased partnering complexity. Warren will bring to light the critical role of leadership and emphasize that the value of the alliance function must be woven into the fabric of the organization.
