Why Bookbuzz?
- The current economic circumstances amplify the importance of an engaged and motivated workforce.
- The talent war has not gone away - it has intensified.
- Information overload.
- If your staff is not up to date with the latest business thinking, your organisation is less efficient and agile.
- Your organsation needs to transfer knowledge from Generation X to Generation Y.
- Generation Y requires a different learning approach.
- There is a need to tap into the collective wisdom of an organisation.
- Standard consultancy solutions take too long.
- A conventional approach to solving a problem will produce a conventional solution - it will NOT give your organisation a competitive advantage.
Bookbuzz is a management development, consultancy and training solution that uses the latest business books as a platform for peer to peer learning, for tapping into an organisation's collective wisdom, and for promoting engagement across the organsation.
Bookbuzz allows you to dispense with conventional trainers, consultants and advisors. Instead, you can use Bookbuzz as a catalyst for unleashing the collective brainpower of the organization.
How does it work:
Book selection
Based on your briefing to us, we establish themes – such as the current economic climate, leadership, strategy, and innovation. The themes form the basis for a list of books that we recommend - you decide on the final selection. Every executive who participates in a facilitated Bookbuzz programme receives a copy of the book, and all participants are asked to read the same 40-50 pages (NOT the full book).
Maximum efficiency
The 2-hour facilitated book-based discussion sessions are held on your premises, at a time that is convenient for you. Often, sessions are held over breakfast, lunch or after office hours.
Session report
Bookbuzz reports back to the client with a report on the insight of the session and the take away for the organisation.
Always up to date
Our programmes and our book selection ensure competitive advantage, and keep executives always up to date with the latest business thinking. The insights from the discussions become embedded in the organisation’s culture. The participants engage in a highly enjoyable, time-efficient peer-to-peer learning experience that empowers them to make better business decisions.
Proof
A recent Frost & Sullivan survey revealed that 93 percent of CEOs consider growth their main priority for the next five years – and yet 80% have no confidence in the abilities of their senior management teams to support their growth objectives. Put another way, 80% of CEOs believe that their people are their biggest barrier to growth. In spite of this CEO dissatisfaction, Frost & Sullivan state that with the right resources, the inner circle has the potential of becoming a true Growth Team. The team can become a conduit for growth, rather than a barrier to growth. This is where Bookbuzz adds tremendous value!
