Training

Bespoke in-company training

"We were delighted with Alternatives excellent workshop. Working with Alternatives the team got a unique insight into the challenges facing the trade and buyers in the current competitive environment, allowing us in turn to develop ways of partnering with the trade effectively.

The team found the session on the key performance indicators that buyers are measured on particularly insightful.  The insights into the different styles used by buyers at negotiations has also given the team more confidence for meetings. Armed with insights and practical tools, I look forward to seeing my team's learnings in action!"

“The Insights work with Alternatives was a great success and had tremendous impact on our strategic planning. The trainer is a true expert in her field and really took us on a journey that will help us become more insight- led. Working with her on this project was a breath of fresh air as she is such an inspiring coach who managed to keep the team’s energy levels high at all times with a perfect mix of theory & practical application.”

“You were excellent facilitators. You both handled the compact program very well, demonstrated years of experience during the session, and were complementary to each other. It was also appreciated that you both were ready to speak out, to demonstrate a firm point of view. The programme was well thought through, and interaction with the group and inviting the group to participate with for instance role playing was a success. The feedback from the group after the event was very positive and it was considered relevant by everybody.”

Not only were they unskilled in business case preparation and presentation, they are now also more confident in their ability to deliver the right result.”
