IIAR Discussion Group: Training the analyst spokesperson

A panel of experts will be sharing their advice in a best practice call on training the analyst spokesperson on Wednesday 21^st September, 4-5pm BST / 11-12pm ET / 8-9am PT.

If you’ve ever wondered how to tell your CEO he needs training, or been confronted by a salesperson who refuses to believe press and analysts are different then this is a great opportunity to glean some tips. If you’re in need of some ammunition on why training is so important then hear an analyst’s view on what happens when the spokesperson gets it wrong or the pitfalls of confrontational styles.

Outline agenda:

• Best practice guidelines – how to handle the spokespeople
• The briefing session – top tips and tricks for speaking before others
• The analyst’s viewpoint – pitfalls and how to avoid them
• Q&A

Speakers:

• Paul Bevan – Analyst, Bloor Research
• Kim Crosby – Founder, CustomerClix
• Ludovic Leforestier – Analyst Relations Director, BearingPoint and IIAR Board member
