GLS Kick-off™
Analysis of the key issues in your project
The Problem
A major deal has come in - you need to know what you don't know.
Related challenges include:
- going ahead “in the dark” is not an option
- not knowing the pathway dilutes your ability to negotiate strategically
- doing research to get up to speed will take time you don't have
- you do not have much/any capacity and your team is permanently stretched
- there is limited budget for external support and briefing them is time consuming
You know that the expertise you need is out there but you cannot access it. Do you really want to rely on Google?
The GLS Solution
GLS Kick-off™ is all about delivering pure "bottled” project insights - the aggregated and collective wisdom of the GLS team leveraged to help you get ready for a new project.
