PARTNERING:SUCCESS: The Challenge is an innovative learning tool created by The Learning Key, Inc. This business-based board game provides trainers and participants an interactive approach to learning the stages of strategic partnering and outsourcing.  It provides a valuable forum to discuss your company’s outsourcing strategies and approaches in creating long-lasting partnerships.

This approach:

  • Explores the stages of outsourcing and partnering thoroughly
  • Creates a memorable and enjoyable learning environment

Strategic Partnering, A Five-stage Process to Improve Strategic Alliances and Outsourcing Relationships The Learning Key, Inc. is proud to announce the release of their new publication  Strategic Partnering, A Five-stage Process to Improve Strategic Alliances and Outsourcing Relationships by Dr. Elizabeth Treher and Michael Mead. Although today’s companies are outsourcing more and more, a recent survey shows that only ten percent are highly satisfied. This book provides a high-level overview of key stages to build strong partnerships and ensure success. Included are strategies and checklists for partner organizations to work together from the beginning. The book complements our new learning tool Partnering Success-The Challenge.

Strategic Partnering: Activities for Improving Alliances & Outsourcing Relationships Workshop This one-day workshop has been used for pharmaceutical companies and their partners to help employees understand how to outsource. Participants will explore effective approaches and activities for selecting the right partner, contracting negotiations, launching the project, enhancing and closing down a project. They will review strategies to overcome the typical partnership problems. Activities in this workshop will demonstrate techniques for building teamwork with your new alliances.
