Reputation is Key to the Success/Failure of a CVC Program
* Corporate Venturing is Here to Stay
* Increased Scrutiny Requires Deliberate Steps
* Model will Evolve Based on Lessons Learned
* Working with the Venture Community is Critical
* Every Transaction, Every Engagement, Every Partnership contributes to the Corporate Reputation
Modern Portfolio Professionals must now make the value leap from a PROJECT mindset to an INVESTMENT mindset. To make this happen, they must communicate in the strategic and financial terms that their CFO, CEO, Board and other leaders understand and REALLY care about. Click through the Slideshare to get the full story.
Many investment advisors have good intentions regarding succession planning, but are unsure what is needed to execute a plan. This previously presented workshop presented real solutions to succession and sustainability for independent investment advisors, taught by leading experts in transition planning.
The Role of Rewards in the “New Age” of Employee Empowerment. So where does compensation fit in this new engagement environment? Does it play any role? Some analysis suggests its impact is minimal. Other studies indicate it is a larger factor. To the extent attrition can be considered the antithesis of engagement, one might be confused by what seems to be conflicting data analyses among researchers regarding the influence compensation has on this much sought after quality in employees. If these are questions you are trying to answer, you should not miss this presentation.
Employee Performance Management - What Your CFO Needs to Know About Culture B...Shelley Reece
Labor is probably your number one CONTROLLABLE cost. Talented employees are also a scarce resource. How is it that financial capital is plentiful but carefully managed, and great employees are scarce and poorly managed?
The answer lies in the relationship between your CHRO and your CFO.

Isnt it funny how you take your core business for granted. Having pioneered the approach since 2006, the icebreaker executive approach to the governance, resourcing, ROI measurement and delivery of interim management is still streets ahead of the competition :)
On this basis whilst we don't search awards out or put ourselves forwards - maybe its no wonder our highly trained team win awards every year?
If you have an intransigent business challenge you are looking to permanently resolve and along the way transform your teams capability - do call. we'd would love to hear from you.
A summary of the approach is below

HireLabs Perspective: Increasing Vc Returns In Talent Assessment FirmsHireLabs Inc.
The VCs must ask themselves if they have CEOs who are capable of driving companies
as the recession bottoms.
Looking at the current slowdown in non-farm employment and the subsequent rebound strategies, HireLabs can forecast a recovery in the international labor market - lead by the US - sometime around Feb 2010 (Q1 2010).
Very few CEOs of venture-backed companies have experience of riding a company
through a recession successfully.
The questions that investors should ask there CEOs is
whether they are able to monetize on market-indicators as the recovery approaches.
Investors who are looking to capitalize on the recovery should predominantly understand the teams that are running the companies, and assess the teams’ ability to analyze and perform the market indicators....

Business Succession and Exit planning - found out how to maximise the value of your business with our 21 step process, fund your retirement and make sure your business continues !
Discover and understand the critical actions needed on the venture journey to scale successfully.
What is it for?
To help corporate entrepreneurs identify and successfully navigate each critical action that will ultimately become the foundation of a corporate venture’s scaling effort. Based on the insights from 200+ corporate innovation and venture tracks, this practical guide provides a deeper understanding of what’s needed early-on for long-term venture growth.
Benefits:
Identify the right measurement approach that shines a light on your path forward.
Create an ideal team setup with access to the right talent at the right time.
Select the appropriate ownership structure and legal entity format.
Startup Exit Strategy: Why, when, and how to sell your technology startup to an acquirer. Discusses Lean Startup + Early Exit model. Tips for early stage M&A, exit planning, and doing the deal.
How do you place a value on a business where there is no relevant historical data? This question regularly appears in startup ventures, or where there is a new development in an existing business - perhaps in response to a new technology or process. Without historical financial data - or where this is misleading - the SLC Matrix is an attempt to provide a systematic and objective framework - with flexibility - that enables some defensible logic and intellectual rigour to be used despite the lack of past data. It's free for you to use, or modify to fit your circumstances
The study on success factors in strategic corporate venturing is based on extensive qualitative and quantitative market research among corporate venturing units and independent venture capitalists. The research project was established in close collaboration with Berlin Institute of Technology and the Steinbeis University Berlin.
The 'Truthiness' of Marketing AttributionOrigami Logic
In this presentation, you will discover the 'truthiness' (for those of you who are Stephen Colbert fans) of marketing attribution. Modern marketers now depend on a growing number of digital and offline channels - web, email, social, search, display, video, television, out of home, radio and many more - to deliver messages to their audiences. Faced with increased accountability for ROI and frequent requests for campaign metrics, marketers are scrambling to determine which channels are performing best and how to allocate budget to maximize sales.
It’s no wonder that marketers are rushing to attribution solutions, in an effort to decipher data and assign credit to specific channels and touchpoints. However, marketers often face a rude awakening when they realize that attribution models fail to reveal the whole truth and can’t answer some of their most urgent, time-sensitive questions.
Join us to gain a clear understanding of the four key limitations of attribution and learn how to:
- Establish a data foundation and measurement framework
- Develop an “always-on” view of multi-channel performance
- Test and optimize to assess and determine lift
Over 100 decision-makers working directly on corporate innovation in Fortune 1000 (Americas, Europe, Asia) corporations share their learnings. By 500 Startups.
Shareholders and high performing employees need each other. Owners need growth enablers who can build the future company they envision. Key performers want to apply their unique abilities to a meaningful end that rewards them for value creation. So, how do you bring those two visions together in the way you construct rewards strategies? How do you pay crucial contributors in a way that improves shareholder value and makes owners feel good about the investment they are making in compensation? If these are questions you are trying to answer, you should not miss this!
There are many companies doing fine in the face of this recession. Some are in the “right” industry, some have a “killer” product or service and some are thriving by design.
Companies that have the ability to weather and thrive regardless of the economic cycle have some common characteristics.

Merrill Research, Wine Club Dynamics: Topline Report - 2018the Hartsook Letter
OBJECTIVES:
Understand winery club member profiles, behavior, and wine club preferences in order to reveal ways to keep members happy, or win them back if they’ve left. This report leverages 3 research projects conducted by Merrill Research:
The Grapes & Grain Opinion Panel, with over 10,000 members, is the largest consumer panel in North America dedicated to wine and spirits drinkers.
The panel was created by Merrill Research in the summer of 2011 and new respondents are continuously added. Participants remain highly engaged as they are not inundated with surveys and are only surveyed about wine or spirits by Merrill Research.
Objectives
Insight was sought about core (weekly+) wine drinkers in order to provide guidance to wine producers and resellers.
Study objectives were to gain the following information about core wine drinkers:
– Wine consumption and purchase behavior
– Price and value attitudes
– Initial understanding of wine brand advocates
– Restaurant purchase and consumption dynamics
– Path-to-Purchase , including digital and social media behavior
