GBPA provides organisations with competitive advantage by providing access to best practice, valuable insights and practical solutions to internal collaboration and business partnering challenges.

GBPA’s unique mix of its research-based Discovery programme, experience of developing improved collaboration in key internal and external relationships across different sectors, enables GBPA to deliver outstanding value to its international clients and community of participating organisations.

GBPA’s goals are to enable its clients and organisations participating in its Discovery programme to:

• understand and reduce risks in their key Customer / Service Provider relationships
• improve external collaboration effectiveness and profitability
• improve collaboration between internal senior executives
• explore critical partnering issues in a truly objective peer group environment
• access world class knowledge, experience and expertise
• source a wide range of practical solutions to partnering issues.

Knowledge of business partnering and collaboration is fast becoming a career-changing asset – in every type of enterprise. Managers who demonstrate collaborative capabilities and behaviours, and knowledge of effective partnering, are better equipped for leadership roles in their organisation. Individuals participating in GBPA’s Discovery programme have the opportunity to interact with a community of senior executive peers and acquire key partnering skills and knowledge.

GBPA ensures that senior executives involved in GBPA’s Discovery programme can meet in an objective and confidential environment to explore critical partnering and collaborative matters – including commercial, organisational and cultural issues.

As the C-level sponsor in a GBPA client organisation, you will have access to:

• A GBPA senior executive contact who acts as your sounding board, helping you identify solutions for your crucial internal collaborative issues and business partnering challenges
• Practical tools and frameworks unique to GBPA developed from its research-based Discovery programme, which help you tackle internal collaboration and business partnering challenges
