People

 Selection

Partnering can produce amazing results but only when the right people are in the right places to build on these alliances. Partnering is not necessarily a natural business process and key people and potential leaders need to be identified on both sides to champion the partnering cause and inspire others.

Although certain skills can be taught and formal training provided, recognising those with that passion and innovation for partnering success is a big leap forward. Apace can help in this selection process, we will assist in recruitment both internally and externally.

 Training

Providing expert training and guidance is a formidable part of the partnering model at Apace. We understand the importance of creating new experts and leaders within the partnering infrastructure to guarantee longevity and success. Through a variety of formats most suitable to your organisation and environment (ie, courses, workshops and online learning) we can develop and implement a range of learning solutions for key employees to develop their knowledge of partnering and gain a shared passion and innovation for new goals and challenges.

 Management

To build on the foundations of partnering and fully comprehend the strategies and dynamics involved for collaborative success a decisive management team needs to be formed.

Apace can offer a range of alliance managed services and practical management solutions to overcome any pitfalls and keep the partnering program on track. For example, we can provide management cover on a full or part-time basis to cover absences, leave or temporary fill vacant positions.

Through expert training, Apace can develop skills and help build a strong management team to have the foresight to adapt and grow, capitalising on the vast possibilities that will lie ahead.
