The Legacy Partner

The Partnering Economy is here and relationships are the new currency. Are you equipped to succeed?

The effect you desire to have as a leader takes a team, a mastermind, an organization, a community, or a system. Nothing great is done alone and individual dreams are realized through collective impact. Which makes working together the secret sauce for transformation in any organization.

Whatever you and your organization are up to, you can’t do it alone.

When was the last time you did something completely independently? Even the air you breathe and the water you drink require Mother Nature. That salad you ate for lunch – did you grow and harvest it from scratch, without the help of the elements? The purpose that calls to you – would it hold the same meaning if other people didn’t exist? People give you a purpose.

We exist in nested hierarchies of complex networks within ecosystems – physically, mentally, socially, spiritually, financially, educationally, and economically. The challenge for current leaders is that the amount of stakeholders continues to increase. In addition to investors, you may have Board members, suppliers, employees, direct reports, affiliates, associations, and more.

With all of the numerous partnerships to keep track of, manage, and measure, it can get overwhelming.

HAVE YOU FACED THESE CHALLENGES AS A LEADER?

Finding The Right Partners

Finding the right partners to work with, who share your cause or goal can be difficult without a partnership strategy.

Conflict Among Partners

The lack of purposeful agreements with your partners and stakeholders often leads to miscommunication, conflict or lack of trust.

Lack of Resources & Engagement

When you partners are disengaged or not providing resources, its often a sign that your partnership doesn’t meet the 3 Critical Criteria for success.

Unproductive Meetings

Hosting productive stakeholder meeting that actually move your cause or mission forward require planning and preparation.

Don’t leave your partnerships
to chance or circumstance.

If you’re in the Strategic Planning phase with your organization, if you’ve been given mandated partnerships, if you’re going through a merger, or if you’re applying for accreditation; developing a partnership strategy will exponentially amplify your success.

Build partnering into your strategy.
