WEBINAR: Creating a Journey of Transformation for Your Organization

Tue, Sep 1, 2015 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM BST

Alyssa Fitzpatrick | SVP Global Partners and Alliances | CA Technologies | 11 AM MT | September 1, 2015

Like any good relationship, a strong partnership needs to be built upon trust, respect and open communication. But what happens when that breaks down between partners? The business may need to evaluate and take responsibility for its own contribution. And, perhaps that means undergoing fundamental change – but how? In order for true change to be instituted, you must first identify and understand your objectives.

* What are you trying to achieve? *What are your goals for the organization? *Where do you want to be?

Only when you’ve identified business / channel challenges and conflicts and set milestones for success, can you begin to move ahead and map out a plan for success. To achieve the success you envision in your business and with your partners, you need to commit to the journey: it’s not a sprint, it’s a continuous movement that starts from the top down.

In this discussion, we will hear some the winning strategies and approaches for recognizing, planning, and moving teams and companies through a true journey of transformation.
