Analyst Relations' Training
Public speaking to the Industry Analyst Community
Public speaking is an art form. As is communicating to the industry analyst community. Put the two together and there is a compelling need to get it right. Get it right and you and your organisation will be reflected in a professional light. Get it wrong and you and your organisation will lack professionalism in front of the objective eyes of analysts, Added to that, the time and money devoted to developing an Analyst Relations' program will have been wasted.
The purpose of the course is to provide invaluable communication skills to decision-makers responsible for speaking to the industry analyst community. Conducted within a supportive and encouraging environment, this one-day course focuses on:
- Setting the scene: The competitive arena for analyst companies
- Communicating the right message to the right company and analyst
