Stop wasting effort on non engaged consortia
Finding the right partners for a project can be a real hassle. How do you define what you need, track them down, and get them on board? It's tough to keep them fully engaged. Sometimes, partners don't contribute as expected, leaving you to write the project solo. Even worse, they might drop out just before the deadline, wasting all your hard work.
These issues signal that your prep phase might need some fine-tuning.
But don't worry, you can learn to nail this process effortlessly.

Building Collaborative Consortia
Do you recognise any of these thoughts?
Building partnerships is a tedious process
It takes a lot of effort to define common goals
Partners don't deliver
Hidden agendas are problematic
Collaboration slows you down
Partners create complications
You like to practice the concepts right away
It is difficult to get partners on board
2 day masterclass
During the masterclass sessions, you and like-minded participants will learn the step-by-step approach to get into the right mind set and to use tools for creating smart collaboration. Contrary to common belief in business, successful collaboration does not start with the signing of the contract; it starts during the first contact and continues during the building of the consortium, the partnerships, and the collaboration proposal. Our Win-Win-methodology is a specific method to build partnerships and collaboration, it maximises your chances for successful collaboration with results.
