Client Leadership
Services
Firms must continually develop their capabilities at building deep, powerful, lasting client relationships.
We work with our clients to enhance their client relationship and revenue generation capabilities, by focusing on strategy, structures, processes, skills, and culture throughout the firm.
Examples of Client Leadership Development
Strategy development
We work with firms to identify priorities and implement structured initiatives to develop their client relationship capabilities.
Implementing key client programs
Key client programs can be a valuable centerpiece of client relationship initiatives. We help firms to establish key client programs, or to take them to the next stage.
Executive and partner workshops
We run workshops for executives or partners on client relationship and revenue development. These are often run at offsite sessions, or as part of broader development programs.
Best practice and coaching programs
Firms usually have some relationship leaders and client teams demonstrating excellent practices. We can capture the best practices in the firm, and help to disseminate those to others. This can be complemented by one-on-one coaching sessions for selected executives.
