Jared Fuller

In today's business world, the best strategy for companies to deploy in order to grow and innovate is a “𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒍𝒆𝒅 𝑺𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒈𝒚”.

More companies recognise this and more are leveraging Alliances, Partnerships and Ecosystems as the strategy for growth and innovation. According to INSEAD Knowledge and HBR, 60% - 70% of Alliances fail.  That poses a huge challenge! This failure rate is attributed to the partnering professionals working on partnering activity as a “side of desk” role and or they do not have full set skills, competencies, and the attitudes and behaviours that are needed for successful Alliances and Partnerships.

So your company may have some fantastic assets and solutions, but without the complementary assets from partners, and the right people to make the partnership work, your investments will not achieve the result you want.
That creates challenges as you need to drive innovation, growth and competitive advantage to make sure you stay relevant for your customers, clients or recipients of your service or solution.  Otherwise your company may even fail to survive!

You want to be seen as a Provider of Choice to those you serve, and as a Partner of Choice to the Partners that you work with.

How will you get there?

As a globally-recognised authority and world-class expert in Strategic Partnerships and Alliances 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐇 𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑 𝐀 𝐁𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐎𝐓𝐀𝐋 𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐀𝐂𝐓, I have been a catalyst for transformative change and improvement in high-profile, global partnerships, bringing alliance best practices to multiple business areas. My differentiation is that I can contain costs while strategically utilising partnerships and resources to create the largest top and bottom line impacts – all while meeting long-term goals.

All this can be brought to you by way of Coaching, Mentoring, Consulting & Training on Alliances & Partnerships!

In terms of training, this what one of the clients said about it:

"The learning experience was wonderful. I found the combination of "homework," case studies, and class presentations to be very effective. The opportunity to learn from peers added to the impact of the course overall. It is one of the best-run online learning experiences I have attended."  Head of Alliance Management - Biotechnology Research Organisation

I can help you in this very important and critical time to achieve your growth and innovation objectives, by leveraging my world-class partnering expertise.
