Business Books
Bookbuzz is a highly efficient training and development solution for executives using the latest and most up to date business books to create peer to peer learning.
About Bookbuzz“A book is one of the few havens remaining where a man's mind can get both provocation and privacy.” Charles Langbridge Morgan
The Bookbuzz concept is based on the premise that if you give a group of bright people an inspiring, thought-provoking book, and you give them space and time to discuss and debate, the room explodes with peer-to-peer learning, collective insights, and new ideas.
With Bookbuzz learning programmes, you can dispense with conventional trainers, consultants and advisors. Instead, you can use Bookbuzz as a catalyst for unleashing the collective brainpower of the organization.
How does it work:
Book selection
Based on your briefing to us, we establish themes – such as the current economic climate, leadership, strategy, and innovation. The themes form the basis for a list of books that we recommend - you make final selection. Every executive who participates in a facilitated Bookbuzz programme receives a copy of the book, and all participants are asked to read the same 40-50 pages (NOT the full book).
Maximum efficiency
The 2-hour facilitated book-based discussion sessions are held on your premises, at a time that is convenient for you. Often, sessions are held over breakfast, lunch or after office hours.
Session report
Bookbuzz reports back to the client with a report on the insight of the session and the take away for the organisation.
Applications
The concept is not only used for developing executives, but also for:
team building
staff selection and recruitment (Bookbuzz session involving the candidates)
strategy development
talent retention
client engagement (Bookbuzz session with top clients)
strategy and team away days (as an alternative to paintball)
masterclass jam session (as an alternative to seminars)
and more.
Always up to date
Our programmes and our book selection ensure competitive advantage, and keep executives always up to date with the latest business thinking. The insights from the discussions become embedded in the organization’s culture. The participants engage in a highly enjoyable, time-efficient peer-to-peer learning experience that empowers them to make better business decisions.
Proof
A recent Frost & Sullivan survey revealed that 93 percent of CEOs consider growth their main priority for the next five years – and yet 80% have no confidence in the abilities of their senior management teams to support their growth objectives. Put another way, 80% of CEOs believe that their people are their biggest barrier to growth. In spite of this CEO dissatisfaction, Frost & Sullivan state that with the right resources, the inner circle has the potential of becoming a true Growth Team. The team can become a conduit for growth, rather than a barrier to growth. This is where Bookbuzz adds tremendous value!
