Most organisations hold conferences, or in-company workshops, and need external expert input from a speaker who can support the company theme and inspire delegates. Professor Malcolm McDonald is recognized as one of the world’s most interesting, challenging and inspirational speakers.
Professor Malcolm McDonald has received invitations from global organizations, as well as from professional societies.
His inspirational keynote addresses have been acknowledged in hundreds of fabulous testimonials from satisfied audiences in the corporate sector and in the academia.
This kind of experience is crucial, because it is always a great risk for any organization to bring in external personnel to a conference. It is, therefore, essential to have someone with an outstanding reputation, who can be trusted to make a major contribution to the organisation’s goals.
Essentially, our keynotes start with a client request and briefing on the theme and purpose of the event. A proposal from Professor McDonald follows, setting out the presence at the event. Our team then prepares the presentation materials and reaches an agreement with the client. In each occasion there is an assessment post event of the impact of the presentation.
Typical board briefings and keynotes are on topics such as:
- The future of marketing and sales
- Marketing plans, and tyranny of forecasts, targets and budgets
- Needs-based segmentation, still the bedrock of commercial success
- Marketing due diligence and financially quantified value proposition
The typical agenda and content of the presentation centers on three questions:
a. Why most of what you know about strategic planning is wrong?
b. How to develop a winning strategy to grow sales and profits?
c. How to prove to the board that it creates shareholder value?
