Each package includes Leader Guides, Participant Guides and Presentation Slides.
THE PROGRAM IS PROVEN
It works every time. The reality is that most clients have had poor experiences with prior facilitated sessions. We need to communicate to the prospect that this process works every time.
THE PROCESS IS EFFICIENT
There will not be endless iterations of fruitless discussion. It will be clear at the outset how long it will take to build the plan.
THE PROCESS IS EFFECTIVE
In a couple of days your client will build a Strategic Framework that will drive the work of their organization for years to come.
THE PROGRAM IS HIGH VALUE
Your client will recognize the benefits exceed the costs. This enables you to set a fixed-fee price that is in accordance with the high value benefits.
Each package includes Leader Guides, Participant Guides and Presentation Slides. In addition, we include a multi-page color brochure that explains the program to prospects.
The Leader Guide sets the facilitator up for success.
Each Leader Guide provides advice about getting organized in advance of the sessions. It provides step-by-step instructions for each segment of the planning process. It will indicate what slide to present and what information in the Participant Guide should be covered. Each exercise is described in detail, so the facilitator will know exactly what to do each step of the way.
Each program is built around a few models and frameworks. The Leader Guide provides advice about mastering these models and frameworks, so facilitator is perceived as an expert with the confidence to move the participants through the process.
The Participant Guides are professional grade documents which illustrate each element of the step-by-step process. The Participant Guides enable the participant to follow the process, make notes and refer back to previous discussions.
The Participant Guides offer an opportunity to those who want to master the concepts introduced in the session. They provide comfort to those who typically worry about ‘where are we going’ with the process. They reinforce your ability as a facilitator to keep the process moving.
The quality of the Participant Guides reinforces the sense that the process is proven, efficient, effective and high value.
The Participant Guide is the first experience most participants will have with the program. Just having it in front of them prior to the start of the program demonstrates professionalism.
Presentation slides are the glue to a well-run planning process. Each slide has both graphic and narrative detail.
Showing slides ensures that everyone knows what is being discussed and it helps them to connect to the relevant pages in their Participant Guide.
The slides are very beneficial when introducing the models and frameworks. They are also extremely useful when introducing the exercises that generate ideas.
The Presentation Slides and the Participant Guides have the same ‘look and feel’, thereby reinforcing the professional approach to the planning process.
