FAQs

Who is this course for?

This course is for anyone leader looking for a shortcut to maximizing value in their organization.

Are you sick of theoretical “value” training that promises big but doesn’t deliver? Are you tired of academic models that look cool, but even after training you ask yourself, “how exactly does this work in practice?”

I knew there was a better way. I designed this audio course to be easily digestible for leaders working in business relationship management roles.

This course is designed by BRMs for BRMs!  I have put these techniques and tips into practice.

If you answer YES to any of these questions, I’d consider signing up.

  • Do you want a real practice approach to maximizing organizational value?
  • Is value loosely defined in your company?
  • Are you interested in understanding how to implement a value management plan?
  • Have you asked questions about how to capture and articulate value?
  • Do you understand the basics of value but are unclear on how to make it real in your organization?
What is the benefit of maximizing value?

Putting a finger on value is difficult. Yet, you know it when you see it. Your boss does too. This course will enable you to identify value faster. After this course, you’ll be able to capture and articulate value. in terms that leaders understand.

You observe a car with 3 tires and one missing. What’s the value of the 4th tire? We all know you’re not going far on 3 tires. Therefore that 4th tire is important. Is there any question about the value of that 4th tire? Nope.

Yet, in business, value seems to be mystical, like a fog over a castle. We feel its presence but can’t really nail it down. I designed this course to offer practical tips to make communicating and articulating business value seamless.

Why are you credible? Who are you?

I’m a highly respected executive, BRM, and passionate evangelist for the BRM community. As a BRMP®, CBRM®, MBRM®, I am a change champion and fully embrace the role, capability, discipline, and philosophy of the BRM Institute to achieve powerful results.

I also was the first globally credentialed, Master of Business Relationship Management (MBRM®) by the BRM Institute. I also hold certificates of experience in the following areas:

  • Change Management and Transformational Change
  • Organizational Transformation and Scalability
  • Project Management and Portfolio Management
  • Strategy and Strategic Resource Management

I am also a 4x author, MIT Sloan and Yale School of Management speaker, and avid blogger with hundreds of articles on innovation, data science, artificial intelligence, and blockchain.

What will I learn in this course?

This course is the practical extension of my book, Leading with Value: How to Effectively Communicate Business Value.

This course is a practical discussion on how to maximize value in your organization.

I’ve had the great pleasure of mentoring and coach 1000’s of amazing business leaders. I learned that regardless of title, industry, or company maturity, they all had one aspect in common—the concept of business value was mysterious.

It was difficult to articulate. And therefore it was challenging to teach to a team or build a framework for a department.

This course gives you that information. It will empower you. You’ll be amazed at how your understanding and lens of what value is and how it’s applied expands through our discussions.

Makes sense. This must be expensive right?

No. It’s $297.

Why don’t you just charge $599 or $1,407 or $1,950? Why so low?

With your experience, shouldn’t you charge more? It’s clear a ton of work went into this course.

Maybe it should be more. After all, I’m not a pricing expert. I do know that I would have paid a lot more to understand these concepts years earlier.

However, my intent is to offer a product that professionals feel is an awesome deal. I could have chopped this course up into dozens of smaller courses. The thing is I don’t feel you’d get the same benefits if I had done that.

I’m proud of this course and the content I have shared. I’m confident you’ll find it as rewarding to comprehend and apply as I did to create!

How was this course developed?

This is a simple course with solid information.

Q: How can you offer this course for this price? A. I didn’t waste money creating it.

It wasn’t recorded in a fancy soundproof studio. I didn’t purchase $10,000 mixers for blending sounds. I didn’t have an army of professional audiophiles review the tracks. I didn’t perform 100 takes of each recording to create a 100% perfect track.

Here’s what I did do.

I did use a high-quality boom mic to record the tracks. I did clean the audio with a cool AI program. I also optimized the audio noise balance. I recorded in the early mornings 4-5 am to ensure minimal noise interference. I also did my best to make it feel like a conversation or listening to a friend share advice.

Guess what? I’m not the most social creature ever created. I made some minor mistakes in the recording and I just keep rolling. I’m comfortable owning that. It’s what I consider authentic leadership.

I developed this course using my best content.

I created the course that I would want to take. I created the course I wish existed to fast-track my success as a BRM.

What outcomes can I expect?

You’ll understand how to operate as a BRM focused on value realization.

Think about all the skills you learned in college. Then ponder for a minute all the skills that you never learned in college but rather only learned on the job. Ironically the skills not learned in college were essential to your success.

This is what you’ll learn in this course.

You’ll learn how value management is truly applied in the real world. You already know how to develop relationships. You’re familiar with organizational structures and where the BRM role fits. But do you know how to start?

You’ve been assigned a value management initiative. Maybe you were assigned to lead a team to improve a process, build that new capability, or design a new operating model. Where do you begin? This course will teach you where to start and more.

Take ownership of value initiatives with confidence. Share your experience with your team. Lead from the front!

Okay. How do I start?

Add the product to your cart, and check out. You’ll immediately be able to down the content!

Join me, and let’s start clarifying your role in the organization!

Have a great day!
