Nouse, savvy, commercial acumen, business skills – however you want to describe it - take your pick.
Here at BD, we describe it as ‘having legs’ – whatever your choice of words, it’s crucial for your company’s success.
Businesses need their people to understand what it takes for an organisation to be successful , to serve its clients well and crucially to make a profit.
It gives them that much needed edge to navigate the choppy waters of the commercial world with confidence ; producing better pitches, proposals and presentations as well being more creative when it comes to selling and closing.
We can help.
In our ever changing world one thing that is still a constant is the old adage - 'People buy people' not products, and that still applies whether we talk in person or virtually.
Strong relationships will always be key to business success; and building rapport is an essential skill to accelerate these all-important connections.
As is creating standout, PR ability, and knowing what makes your client tick.
And it would seem we sometimes forget this as we contend with new technologies and bad habits can start to creep in- this workshop can help. Your team will:
Perfect for anyone in client facing / management roles
Analysis might engage the mind, but it does not offer a route to the heart.
Nor does reading from slides….
Humans are intrinsic storytellers, yet we tend to forget this when it comes to business and think that bullet points are the story.
Understanding your audience, what they care about and want to hear is only part of the challenge, delivering it in a way that combines data, emotion and empathy is what will make the message really land. This is where storytelling enters the stage.
Stories build that wonderful feeling of connection , ultimately helping to persuade and influence.
Our programme helps to develop the skills your teams need to build connection through compelling business focused stories. It uses a fusion of story-structure and improvisational techniques to make business-critical messages more impactful, relevant, memorable and ultimately help win the business!
Our workshop helps your team:
Perfect for anyone who needs to produce pitches, proposals, reports and recommendations both internally and externally.
Do you want your business to be better at asking the big ‘what if’ questions?
Do you want your team to be able to create that all important competitive edge to stand out against your competition?
So what? What now? What next?
These short, powerful questions help fuel creativity and innovation for growth.
Creativity and innovation go hand in hand, there isn’t one without the other. Creativity enables new and unique ideas; innovation is the execution of that creativity - the new idea, solution, process, or product.
Being able to look at things creatively, from a different perspective or free from restrictions are driving forces behind innovation.
Contrary to popular belief, creative thinking skills can be learned; not from sitting in a room being spoken at but through hands on application of thinking processes using real life, relevant work examples to embed.
Our delegates leave with the ability to apply a creative mindset to their work and situations as they arise; armed with go-to frameworks that can be pulled down amongst the inevitable pressures of pitching, deadlines and financial targets.
