Beyond a Good Plan-Getting it Done!

The 2004-2005 ISBM Trends Study projects that the next challenge for business marketers will be to "lead the charge for growth." Find new demand, get into new markets, develop new offerings. Better deploy the basics: Segmentation, Targeting, Positioning. To do more than plan-to get past constraints, limits, obstacles, changes and get it done!

Signs of Improvement.With Continued Challenges

Across ISBM Member firms, we see signs of an upturn, with mixed signals. Cost pressures continue. Staff working beyond "full load." How do we get things done? Overcome limits and obstacles? Execute with excellence?

Keys to Execution from world thought leaders:

Be the one who brings new insight to your firm on how to grow, implement, and execute in today's business environment. We've gathered world thought leaders on "business/marketing execution," together with benchmark cases from marketers who climbed over obstacles, learned along the way, and "got it done." You'll gain practical insights, tips, traps, tricks...

The Innovator's Dilemma; The Innovator's Solution

At the June 2000 meeting of the ISBM, Dr. Clayton Christensen outlined his now famous Innovator's Dilemma: the Achilles heel larger firms face. How culture and limitations can keep firms from recognizing and profitably executing on the potential of "disruptive" innovation.

Keynote Speaker Dr. Michael Raynor, Dr. Christensen's co-author, will outline The Innovator's Solution. How firms like yours can recognize and go beyond their limits to create and sustain successful growth.

Researcher, thought leader, and business coach Amir Hartman has personally counseled Larry Bossidy, John Chambers, and others on how to move "beyond the wall" to manage through adversity and set the stage for growth and rebirth. Hartman will share insights on Ruthless Execution.

Each ISBM registrant and member firm will receive copies of:

  • The Innovator's Solution and
  • Ruthless Execution

Insights on "getting it done" in today's markets. Important additions to your ISBM library.
