About this event
A value proposition is an innovation or feature that clarifies a company's core purpose and identity.
According to McKinsey and others, value proposition is amongst the latest 'board room buzzwords' yet only a very small proportion of organisations have a value proposition and even fewer understand how to use it effectively.
The Levitt Group invites you to a masterclass with Malcolm McDonald, Emeritus Professor, Cranfield, and visiting Professor at Henley, Warwick, Aston and Bradford Business Schools – not to mention bestselling author of 46 books. You may already have “Marketing Plans; How to Prepare them, How to Use them” on your bookshelf!
Drawing on extensive industry experience working at the highest level with some of the largest multi-national organisations including IBM, Xerox and BP, Malcolm McDonald will explain why your organisation needs a financially quantified value proposition, how to create one, and how to implement it successfully, so that it delivers tangible results to the bottom line.
This masterclass is aimed at all senior marketers who would like to find out more about financially qualified value propositions and how to develop propositions that will resonate with customers.
All attendees will receive a complimentary copy of Malcolm McDonald's new book, due to be published on 03 October: 'Malcolm McDonald on value propositions: How to develop them, how to quantify them' retailing at £19.99. You'll also receive a voucher for 20% off other Kogan Page books.
