This Strategic Alliances Workshop from iFive Alliances, LLC was created by applying the mindset, toolset, and skillset inspired by the Georgia LEARNS Community ALOsm – Adaptable Learning Outcomes framework.
The purpose of this workshop is to allow attendees to hear about effective methods for improving or creating strategic alliances.
The workshop is primarily educational in nature to protect the proprietary interests and expectations of the attendees.
Comment
These are some of the questions that were asked by participants:
1.How do you decide which alliance or alliance type to pursue first and
make sure it drives real revenue without over complicating it?
Ideally, try to focus on the right alliance rather than the first alliance. What does the client need? A mature collaboration focuses on the client. Realistically, it will be a matter of control and cost - too often we become impatient because our need for revenue and/or impact takes our focus off the client. The work of an alliance leader is to simplify doing the best thing for the client - always.
2. For independent (single employee LLC) need to have the strategic
alliance/partnerships "in writing" or just a hand shake agreement?
A handshake agreement is the practical answer for most single employee LLC's. It can become more complicated if the client requires written agreements and/or liability protection. It can also become important to have written agreements if IP, investment, or payment is involved. Good fences make for good neighbors.
3. How do I create an alliance that might be valuable for me but not as valuable to the other?
Don't waste your time even trying. Use your time to either find another alliance or to understand this one better. If you cannot find a priority mutual need you are better served to invest your time elsewhere.
4. Why does creating an alliance come naturally to some and not to others?
I think that the willingness to be authentic (know your strengths) and vulnerable (address your weakness) and curious (understand the weaknesses and strengths of others) may be the reason. An alliance is like a puzzle - held together by strengths and weaknesses blending. It is likely impossible to solve a puzzle if every piece is a perfect square or perfect circle.
