April 6, 2008 - Sunday 11:00 am (1-1508) Arnoud Vermei, Carol M. Panza, Michiel Bloem, Juan Pablo Ortiz (Client Executive Committee Members-Dr. Edward Schneider, Belia Nel, Ken Junkins, Camille Ferond with Christine Marsh as an alternate) Do you find it challenging to sell your HPT approach to potential clients? Have you heard yourself saying, "I know I have an approach that will make a difference and deliver results, but how do I convince my client?" If you recognize this dilemma, this is your "must attend"session of the conference. Join Arnoud Vermei (Netherlands), Carol Panza (USA), Michiel Bloem (Netherlands) and Juan Pablo Ortiz (Sweden) and our incredible client panel, including members from South Africa, UK and the USA, for this innovative two-part session. Do you find it helpful to learn by doing? Using a two-part action learning approach, you will discover better ways to present the value of an HPT approach. Working together with a diverse team of HPT practitioners, you are offered the opportunity to develop and deliver a presentation to a client team, based on a real life performance improvement opportunity, facilitated and supported by a group of recognized senior HPT professionals. You also can attend this session as an observer if your conference schedule precludes being at one or the other of the sessions. During Part 1 (First day of the conference) - You will join a consulting team and be introduced to the client company, the performance issue and the professionals playing the roles of key executives for the client. Your team will determine what it wants to ask client executives during a "Bidder's Conference" in order to gather sufficient information to prepare a credible proposal for a performance improvement effort. Your questions answered, you will work together and plan your proposal and presentation development process within session #1. Between Part 1 and Part 2 - Your team will, then, have the conference sessions, presenters, other participants and your teammates as resources in order to actually put together your presentation for delivery on the last day of the conference, in session #2. There will also be opportunities to interact with client company "executives," session facilitators and others, in a "Communications Center" that we will designate for you, dedicated to posing and sharing answers to additional questions developed after the Bidders Conference as required by the teams. During Part 2 (Last day of the conference) - The teams will make their presentations. Then, after all the teams have presented, the "client executives" will provide their reaction/feedback to the proposals they have heard, and indicate their preference. This will be followed by a general debrief in which all participants (teams, Board members and observers) will be asked to join in. Track: Audience Level: All Levels |
