Being a Transformational Strategic Alliance/Partner Manager
This training will transform your most challenging business relationships and your ecosystem. With a cohesive approach it progresses from the individual, to business relationships, to your overall business, and finally to the world around you. It melds together as within so without (personal transformation) and as without so within (insights from the real world). It addresses fundamental issues and it is based on real-world experiences.
Joe Kittel leverages off of his engineer’s mindset, practically-focused on fundamental principles. With over 25 years of experience in strategic alliances, amongst such companies as Adobe, Capgemini, HP, IBM, Intel, Microsoft and SAP he knows the following:
- Most partnerships and alliances fail, mostly due to failure in relationship. They fail to achieve their full potential, due to such things as low trust, poor communication and an unhealthy atmosphere.
- Practical spirituality addresses the fundamental issues in long-term value-creating business relationships.
- Conscious capitalism (spiritually-based businesses) outperforms the S&P500 by a ratio of 10:1; the ROI for practical spirituality in business relationships is limitless.
There is a better way and we go there together.
