Most organisations spend all their time having the wrong conversations for growth. These day-to-day tactical conversations focus on the “basic deliverables” i.e.
- “What’s your best price/ your price is out?”
- “When can you deliver?”
- “Your quality is an issue for us”
- “We can never get quick response - you are always in meetings"
The outcomes of such conversations are likely to be:-
- Lack of trust
- Lack of credibility
- We win/ you lose results
- Insecurity
- No transparency
- Reactive, defensive behavior – being on the “back foot”
- No value created
- No real growth
Through the Argil Strategic Customer Growth Process, we will help your organisation move away from these tactical conversations only, enabling you to have the necessary strategic conversations around:
- Strategic Alignment - aiming toward shared goals & objectives
- Unlocking the synergistic value of you & your Customer’s organisations
- Challenging the behaviours needed to support absolute trust, integrity and transparency
- Answering the question - ‘Together, how can we create Value?”
The outcomes of these Argil facilitated strategic conversations are:
- Creating trust, openness and commitment to win/win solutions
- Transparency and integrity of communication and information sharing
- Sharing of resources to create synergistic value
- Creating interdependency and integration of operations, systems and processes
- Finding ways for both to grow exponentially through revenue/ market share expansion, as well as through significant savings in the supply chain.
