  Stage-Gate® Innovation: The Next Step
Seminar with Dr Cooper Seminar in your own company

           


This Stage-Gate® seminar provides you with a step-by-step action plan to update and improve your development process and your portfolio management system to dramatically increase new-product impact and profits. The methods are based on what the top firms are using including:

  Stage-Gate®: Accelerate your NPD process and significantly improve success rates
  Right-size your idea-to-launch system and allow for flexibility and scalability - to suit different sizes, types and risk-level projects
  Implement next generation Stage-Gate® and the Xpress Stage-Gate® to speed up your gating and portfolio process.
  Improve the efficiency of the front-end of projects - doing the right front-end homework, and strategies to build in the voice of the customer
  Portfolio Management: "lean gates with teeth": How to significantly improve your gating and portfolio management process to identify higher value projects, yet make decisions faster and more efficiently
  Determine the optimal mix of new-product projects - small versus large; short term versus long term; minor modifications versus significant new products

If possible, bring colleagues to the event. It’s good to have a small team rather than just one person to return to implement what you have learned.
