Sales Force Development Event in May

Monday, April 16th, 2012

How are your business results this year? Are you achieving your goals or falling short? If you aren’t 100 percent satisfied with your team’s performance so far this year, it is time to think about how to build a high performance team.

Our last event was a resounding success. The sales force development workshop in March attracted around 80 C-level leaders. In a concentrated three-hour workshop, we explored how to develop a high-performance sales team through the right sales strategy. We covered:

  • Why strategy is so important to the sales organization
  • What processes and systems are crucial to success
  • How their company compares to other well-run sales organizations
  • Which areas of their sales force management are falling short
  • 9 reasons why sales people fail to perform to their potential
  • Secrets to strengthening their sales recruiting process

These seminars work! One of the attendees, Ron Callis, CEO of Firefly, said he had been studying TopGrading for a number of years but couldn’t get his arms around how to implement it. He shared his recent success with applying the concepts that were shared in a previous AGI seminar, which helped his organization gain more time, better candidates, and quick and successful ramp-up to success.

Our next business seminar, Building and Leading High Performance Teams, will be delivered as a convenient webinar on May 10, from 12pm to 1:30 EST.

In it, we will learn:

  • How high performance teams work
  • How to develop a high performance team
  • How to recognize and understand the processes that enable high performance team formation and development

Hurry because space is limited and our last webinar filled up quickly!

How do you find your “Blue Ocean”?

Wednesday, January 25th, 2012

More importantly, what is a Blue Ocean? That is the main focus of our upcoming strategic planning workshop called Keys to Forming an Awesome Strategy Workshop on Feb. 2. In it, we examine some of the principles from the book Blue Ocean Strategy by W. Chan Kim and Renee Mauborgne. In order to teach students how to build a business strategy that works, we look at how to dissect the various differentiating aspects of a service or product and create a refreshed strategic model around it.

Think about the different dimensions of your business. What decisions can you make about your product or service that will help you break boundaries? What choices do you have in terms of positioning your company in the marketplace?

This workshop gives you the model you need to reposition and strategize for exponential growth and success using some of the tactics of Blue Ocean Strategy, Good to Great (by Jim Collins), and our years of business strategy consultation experience.

This strategic planning workshop will help you answer:

  • What is the purpose of your business in one word?
  • What is your one-sentence strategy?
  • What is your brand promise?
  • What is your one main target audience?
  • What is your “big hairy audacious goal?”
  • What can you be great at?
  • What is your “X Factor?”
  • What is your ‘Profit per X’?
  • How does culture affect your business strategy and success?
  • How do you attract and hire the best talent?

Hurry! Spots are for our strategic planning working are limited so REGISTER TODAY.
