EBP Business Consulting offers CONSULTING, BENCHMARKING and TRAINING to Briefing Programs globally.
VIRTUAL AND HYBRID OFFERINGS
With Covid-19, much has changed. Briefings are being offered virtually, some programs are using their centers to broadcast interactive briefings and now the best practices for hybrid briefings are being studied. These are all new ways of working requiring briefing professionals to establish new skills, practices, workflows, processes and measurements to ensure success. The challenge is to continuously evolve our briefing programs and prepare our staff for the “new normal” to ensure effective and memorable briefings. If we don’t make our briefings impactful; we miss the opportunity of differentiating our solutions from our competitors and winning in the marketplace.
EBP Business Consulting can help you up-level your program during Covid-19 and after with benchmarking, establishing timely metrics and delivering training. Here is a list of a few of the workshops we offer: Facilitation Skills; Sales, Customer and Discussion Leader Engagement, Analytics, VOC, Virtual Leadership and EQ, Multi-Center Programs, Business Cases and Marketing Strategies. When applicable, training participants will receive ABPM A/CCC competency credit.
Strategically aligned programs and attuned briefing teams are fully utilized because account teams want their customers to have access to thought leadership and your executives. Your management will recognize the true value of the briefing team’s contribution and the program will be better funded and supported.
You'll find EBP's current Series of Virtual Briefing Articles here.

We compare your methods with the industry’s best in class practices to identify strength and opportunities for improvement.
