The Bid Directors' Club: The new format exclusively for bid centre managers

logo blackTarget of the workshop: This is the right place for you if you —as a bid center manager and manager— aim at leading your bid team more efficiently and make it more successful. In this intense workshop series, you will learn the most important levers, tools and methods to make your area of responsibility even more successful.

Target group: It is aimed at all those who have overall responsibility for bid/proposal management in the company: bid/proposal directors, bid managers, head of bid/proposal management. In other words, everyone who leads a team of bid/proposal managers. It doesn't matter whether "Director" is on your business card or not.

Format: The three interactive online workshops take place in small groups (max. 10 participants from different industries). Each session lasts 90-120 minutes and takes place at weekly intervals to fit optimally into everyday work. Christopher S. Kälin provides best practice inputs, which are then discussed together in a practical context. The intensive exchange between the participants offers valuable suggestions for one's own environment.
