Speaking Effectively and Building Alliances

Monday, November 12 2007

Last week, among other big events I was involved in, I teamed up with two great, local speakers to talk about building alliances. What a hot topic this is!! I am convinced that Amy, a business trainer and consultant, and Jeanette, a negotiator and attorney and I could create a full time roadshow going from town to town, helping companies with the three areas of business alliances:
People
Process
Legal Issues

It is neat because when I met Amy I realized that she and I could partner in a very strong presentation because we have different skill sets. I already knew Jeanette, but Amy didn't. Bringing them together and working as a trio, we have made a bigger splash on this topic than possibly any one of us could have done - unless Amy got another billboard in Times Square (that is an inside joke - Amy was in the Dell advertising campaign a few months ago and got her photo up in Times Square)

On Amy's blog today, she listed five tips for a successful seminar, based on ours last week. Enjoy, and as she mentions, post your comments to her blog, or send me email and we can add to the list.

Thank you for being the mastermind behind this event, Lori. Your creative ideas on bringing people together to drive business is what caused this event to be such a great success. I will be posting the pictures from the event on our site in a few days: http://www.megatrends4megabucks.com.
