What makes Business Partnering really work?
A Conversation on Business Partnering – Online workshop
We have invited Satish Lakshmipathy, Learning Consultant at Philips, one of our long-term clients, to a panel conversation about what makes Business Partnering really work in complex matrix organisations.
Based on our experience of developing over 2000 business partners from a range of functions – such as IT, Finance, HR, Legal, Research, Procurement, Communications in multinational corporates over last 5 years, we will share our success stories, lessons learnt, and explain our approach to business partnering development.
Find out how we co design blended learning programs for executive functional leaders and mid-level business partners and how we have developed a completely virtual integrated learning approach.
