Course Overview

Discounting solves a problem in marketing storytelling today and creates a larger one next quarter. Activity in this aspect of marketing and commercial practice is easy to generate and easy to mistake for progress. They gain the ability to sequence improvements to the marketing and commercial practice capability in an order their organisation can absorb. Across sectors, teams that rehearse marketing storytelling outperform teams that only plan it. The programme works equally well for those formalising the marketing and commercial practice discipline for the first time and those improving an existing approach. It concentrates on the parts of the practice within marketing and commercial practice that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a go-to-market plan for marketing storytelling as they go. Ambition around this part of marketing and commercial practice outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. The final module sets out how progress on the marketing and commercial practice capability will be evidenced six months later.
