More energy and effort is put into trying to figure out how to make business development work than any other management function; including advancing the technology that is at the heart of a company's value proposition. There are plenty of books out that that deal with the technologies and tools of business development. This is not one of them. My focus is on the human interactions that accompany the development or expansion of a business development component of your senior management team. Over the years, I have worked with dozens of CEOs. The vast majority of them have felt more confident about their company's technology and technological edge than about its ability to generate an expanding customer base. One client put it this way, "Sure, there is always competition but the core of our management team is focused on delivering advances that keep the company's value proposition ahead of its competition." Business development is another thing altogether. Most CEOs that I have worked with have, sooner or later, had a similar experience. Their value proposition was significantly better than the competition's but they still ended up losing the business. In fact, very often the company that is best at business development is well back in the pack then it comes to innovation and cutting edge value propositions. But they win while other companies lose out to them. This is a CEO's worst nightmare. "We were better than them but we lost out." Business Development the Right Way shows you how it is done and, more importantly, that it can be done for virtually any company. Business Development the Right Way shows you how a well-run business development team coupled with an advisory board, properly structured and populated by highly influential, committed and well-connected individuals can drive a company's revenue. In this book I describe the design, population and management of these boards and show how they can increase the effectiveness of a company's business development process.
Author Biography
I have been mentoring senior executives and corporations for more than two decades. I got into mentoring after a successful career as a recidivist entrepreneur. I founded and built six companies. The experience of building those businesses brought many good times but I have recently been thinking about all those clients I mentored and the successes that they have had. Some of my fondest memories have resulted from those mentoring engagements. Over the years, I have provided executive mentoring, leadership guidance, organizational support, team and life mentoring. Each is different but the focus has always been the same - working to help my clients unlock their potential and enjoy successes that they never thought possible.
