As Business Arrangements Become More Complex, Achieving Optimum Sustainable Performance Requires Flexibility, Adaptivity, and Increased Collaboration.
It is no secret that the many complex public–private and public-public business arrangements fall short of meeting stakeholder expectations. The single leading cause of failure is that complex, long term agreements are structured and managed as static transactions or deals, and therefore do not adapt well to change and evolution. By positioning the relationship among stakeholders at the heart of delivery, oversight and performance management, business arrangements are structured and managed as collaborative and adaptive system that drive change and achieve improved outcomes with lower risk.
This half-day Executive program will provide Executives with the need to know essentials for managing adaptive, flexible and collaborative business relationships. The program will provide a high level guide to implementing and operationalizing the ISO 44001 standard for collaborative business relationships in existing and new relationships and for building the required capacity and skills necessary to enable change and create a culture of collaboration and trust.
