Episode 69: Easter roundtable
It’s episode 69, the last one in season 9, and it’s time to review the topics that we’ve discussed with Insight leaders at our forums and in 121s this term.
Which questions have been asked most often, which new ideas have resonated with IMA members and guests at the Insight forums?
James is joined by Emma Jones, the IMA’s Head of Content, and Lisa Dutton, Head of Customer, to look back at the term just gone, and forward to the summer term to come.
In this week’s episode:
- The need to embrace ‘uncomfortable influencing’
- Tactical tips for managing difficult conversations
- The bunch of fives… what’s the worst that can happen?
- What do CEO’s think about Insight?
- The need to understand stakeholders and their communication preferences
- What’s on James’s mind for Quirk’s Chicago, London and New York?
