Workshop Topics

  • The Phoenix Principle in Action
    This premium program is most frequently delivered personally by Adam Hartung. It takes your group through all four steps of The Phoenix Principle for continuous growth. This extensive program offers you the ability to assess what the future holds for your organization. Creating a better understanding of what trends your organization can begin to follow, formulating an action plan for exceeding competition, overcoming Lock-ins and building a White Space team to implement growth opportunities are for long term sustainability.
  • Breakthrough Manufacturing
    Mastering Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing has streamlined organizations, but has not protected implementers from competitors nor guaranteed long-term growth. The recent economic crisis has changed all of the rules. Instead of managing from what you did last year, you need to help your company plan by looking into the future.
  • Beyond Product Innovation
    This workshop is designed to assess market trends, then select one high opportunity product or service that will support this trend. Teams then identify what barriers, or Lock-ins – both internal and external – will inhibit implementing this new innovation.
  • Trends, Scenarios and Competitors
    The true success of an organization depends upon how well it responds to changing market demands. Organizations of all sizes get bogged down delivering historical products and services, coming up short when delivering against future market demands. To meet needs based upon emerging trends you need to identify them NOW.
  • Lock Ins and White Space
    If your organization has unsuccessfully implemented a new innovation, Lock-In was most likely the culprit. Most innovations fail because Lock-in to existing practices blocks you from doing important new activities, not poor management. Obvious signs in the market allow an organization to recognize innovation is necessary, but because existing processes are so ingrained, the business becomes paralyzed – unable to make the necessary changes to survive.
  • Competitor Analysis
    Are you constantly trying to out-maneuver the competition but realize it's an endless battle? Do you know who all of your competitors are – including fringe competitors who may take you by surprise? This workshop will help you understand why you should really pay attention to competitors and how to manage their lock-ins so you can gain an edge on the market. The goal of this workshop will be to uncover how to position your products and services in a way that gains a competitive advantage with existing and new customers.
  • Breakthrough Sales
    Are you constantly in a pricing battle with your competitors? Do you find it harder and harder each year to build margins into your product or service? This workshop will help you examine what key trends are shaping where the market will be in the next 3-5 years. Then by examining your current competitors, you can begin to map out where your market and growth opportunities are.
