Why Take Training in Competitive Intelligence?

Why-Take-Training-in-Competitive-Intelligence

Today, everyone is “on the lookout”, whether by regularly visiting competitors’ websites, collecting brochures from trade show booths or emailing employees about a news item discovered in the media.

However, our clients often report the same difficulties:

  • Lack of time
  • Too much information
  • Lack of tools or knowledge of existing solutions
  • Lack of knowledge to effectively structure the monitoring
  • Feeling that no one acts upon the information they communicate
  • Impression that they are watching in isolation and feel that a collective approach internally would be more beneficial

If you find yourself facing these difficulties, Julie Defoort can help you. Our training courses cover the fundamentals of strategic watch. While some of our courses suit beginners, we also cater to those with prior knowledge of business intelligence concepts and processes.

Please, note that we do not deliver training and workshops to multiple clients at the same time, unless requested and agreed by the participants. In-house training agreements are protected by an NDA as trust and discretion are paramount.

Here to help you.
