Doing Well While Doing Good: Reconciling Profits and Purpose (NEW)
In the midst of striving to serve customers in a profitable manner, executives must find new ways to address social, environmental and economic influences. Firms vary greatly in how they reconcile their pursuit of profitable results with expectations for serving the common good. As some focus on "seemingly" narrow shareholder perspectives, others may invest resources towards Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) endeavors that may seem "irrelevant" to the core value-generating competencies of the firm. Can firms genuinely sustain a competitive advantage while providing an increasing societal value that does not erode profitability inappropriately? For more information, click here.

Building Relationships That Work
Every business today is a relationship business. The quality and impact of your work, and the profitability of your business, depend upon relationships — with customers, co-workers, and competitors; with suppliers, distributors, and support services; with direct reports, senior managers, and boards. Global mergers and alliances offer opportunities for creating growth, but they also pose new challenges. Not only are you working with more people from different disciplines, industries, and cultures, but you have much less face-to-face time with them than ever before. This three-day program helps you revitalize the relationships that affect the quality and profitability of your business. It goes beyond strategies for influencing the behavior of others to provide a process for creating clear communications, effective collaboration, and relationships that achieve results. Faculty will help you develop better listening and questioning skills. You will learn to recognize your own assumptions and judgments and to reframe situations to gain a broader perspective. You will be introduced to a series of sequential, step-by-step frameworks for building new relationships and improving existing ones. For more information, click here.
