“Researcher Skills & Techniques” WORKSHOP

Wednesday 10th October 2018 – FULLY BOOKED

1.30pm – 4.30pm at Hays Executive 107 Cheapside London EC2V 6DN

Trainer: Louise Haines – Hays Executive Search

Briefing and Target Companies

As researchers we are often tasked with difficult briefs where the client can be direct or through an executive search firm. How can we guarantee a successful outcome from the start? How can you stay in control of a briefing and how can you engage with the client on a consultative and two-way basis?

It can often be challenging to bring the researcher voice to the briefing table and so this interactive session is geared for both novice and experienced researchers to help build confidence at this preparatory stage of the research process and will look to cover:

What the challenges and issues researchers face when conducting a brief and building target companies
How to be an adviser – the importance of preparation
How to be in control of a briefing – setting an agenda
How to think creatively about your target companies
The importance of networks and associations

As part of the training session each participant will look to bring a brief to discuss and review with the group.

What people say about us

"The mentoring programme from my perspective is going well - we have had 2 Zoom sessions with a 3rd in the diary and we have set up a WhatsApp group. Ahead of each session I set an agenda - the two people have very different backgrounds and home lives, both have highlighted different short and medium-term goals, but both are interested in each other’s and are happy to share openly their thoughts on the understanding it is in the strictest of confidence as they work for different companies."
