Advanced Integration Skills Course

Collaboration with a Cause

The key to unlocking integration and ensuring that your integration process is fully integrated(!) is having good collaboration throughout the entire process, and this course builds the soft skills needed to collaborate and therefore, integrate well.

Are integrators clear on the direction they are heading in?
Do integrators work well with all their key stakeholders?
  
When issues arise, are they addressed in a professional and constructive manner?
  
Can they distil and simplify a complex situation to focus on the elements that make the most difference? 

If you answered ‘no’ to any of these questions this course is right for your organisation!

This course is targeted at team members or managers who have been working in an integration role for 18 months or more and for those who would benefit from developing their collaboration skills.
