  • Trains a team of your people in the thinking skills necessary for successful venturing.
  • Enables you to control new product introduction and keep it on time and on budget.

  • Enables your team to re-run the programme in-house whenever appropriate.

  • We work with a multi-disciplined team of your people, leading them through six day-long workshops over six months.
  • Teams are usually between nine and fifteen people.
  • We assemble a list of ventures either from in-house resources or from an earlier Scimitar programme.
  • We take the ventures through six “stage-gate” assessment and development processes.
  • We separate ventures into “front-runners” and “backburners”.
  • We continually apply creativity techniques to front-running ventures to ensure they reach their full potential.
  • We use a mix of styles with people working individually, in single discipline teams or multi-discipline teams, according to the task.



Guarantee

  • We invoice you monthly, but only if you are happy with progress.
