ASAP's Summit is invaluable for alliance and partnership professionals. I consider it a “not to be missed” event! Whether you are new to the alliance management field, or a seasoned professional, participants actively learn from one another. I really value that openness and opportunity to learn from peers who have tackled similar challenges and found a path to success. The learning never stops, and these connections can drive real impact in any alliance management practice. Given that the programming is developed by alliance professionals, ASAP provides a unique opportunity to learn and network in the sessions and in the hallways alike. I hope you will consider joining us.

P.I.D. Alliance Management Workshop
Like a long sailing voyage, keeping an alliance on track is challenging. “Winds” and “currents” buffet your collaboration. It’s not uncommon for two “ships” to bump together (accidentally, or on purpose!).
Engineers use a framework to describe the control of complex processes, like sailing. It’s called P-I-D, or Proportional-Integral-Derivative Control. But don’t be put off by the name. In practice P-I-D Control neatly describes the actions necessary to keep a sailboat, or an alliance on course toward its destination.
ASAP Instructors: Vickie Dalton, PsyD, Katherine Kendrick, CSAP, CA-AM, Nick Palmer, David Thompson, CSAP, CA-AM
