Workshop Descriptions
Scott develops custom workshops for clients by mixing his content into interesting delivery models. These can be workshops designed for idea harvesting, or could be action learning sessions. The list below is a sample of the types of workshops he offers regularly.
High Beam Strategy Process
Scott has developed a multi step process designed to help organizations see into the future in a very accurate way. This day long workshop is a natural extension of an organizations current strategy process and is specifically designed to create a set of investments that an executive develops to focus on being prepared with people, products and processes that will be valuable in the future. This annual process always provides a shared view among the team on where things are going, and how this future view will be leveraged.
Social Technologies
Social Media/Networking has become a powerful new tool for helping organizations find, develop, and communicate with new customers. What started as a collection of tools that individuals used to build community has now migrated into a full blown trend inside of many organizations. Scott has developed a number of tools and concepts that help organizations develop a winning strategy for using social media.

Virtual Teams
The concept of using virtual teams as a new method for raising productivity is becoming increasingly popular. Through a confluence of new technologies, the need to constantly reduce bottom line costs, and a fiercely competitive marketplace, many organizations are now extremely interested in learning how to leverage virtual teams into a strategic advantage. In concept, there is a lot to like about being able to assemble a team of people that are working from wherever is most convenient for them – and without the corresponding office expenses. In reality, there is an art to assembling and managing virtual teams and we have barely scratched the surface on defining best practices as the statistics below point out.

Digital Plumbing Architecture
Executives often have little idea how their underlying IT infrastructure is built, or where the weak points might be. This workshop brings together executive from the business side and the IT side with the express purpose of designing, and graphically representing the next generations of the organizations IT infrastructure. The payoff for investing time with this workshop is a shared two-year technology strategy that will help the organizations grow topline revenue, and lower back office costs.

"Social Technology is a buzz in all aspects of business. Unfortunately, most of it is just a buzz without the ability to use social technology to grow one’s business and monetize this social phenomenon. Scott’s boot camp is the only process I’ve ever seen that provides ROI, not just more information and lingo. Scott does an amazing job of connecting the dots between the board room and a company’s social technology strategies." -David Woods, Giant Partners
