Portals workshop delivers results
On September 18th, we held an Enterprise Portal workshop, to deal with some of the key business and cultural issues associated with a Portal investment. With a mix of member companies represented, both in terms of industry focus and current status with their portal project, we were able to analyse, compare and contrast ideas and experience for the benefit of all involved.

Member feedback – 100% of delegates said they’d learn something new during the workshop

Delegate comment "Well led and good interaction from all attendees" (Invesco)

The analysis from the workshop is now available – please email us at [email protected] if you would like to receive this (MEMBERS ONLY)

*NEXT EVENT* – NetGroup Member Summit 28 October 2002 (new date)

Effectively Managing Your Customer Relationship – What’s the impact of the Data Protection?

Are you clear on the Data Protection Act, what rights your customers have and how you must adhere to these when dealing with customer information? With the proliferation of customer touch points (e.g. the Web; call centres; sales representatives) and the integration of operations across geographic borders, this is of particular concern to NetGroup member companies. Please join us for what is sure to be a stimulating and informative afternoon!

Places are filling up fast – registered members include British Library, Conoco, LIFFE, PowerGen, Sainsbury’s, Severn Trent, Shell and Syngenta (each member can bring two representatives).

NetGroup Elevator – 27 November 2002
How To Turn Your Strategy into Action?

Creating the right business strategy presents a major challenge for any company. But the critical success factor for a strategy is not in the definition but in how effectively that strategy is communicated and executed.

To do this successfully means putting in place the right mechanisms, processes and governance structures that will enable effective change.

BAT is a global company celebrating 100 years of operations. It currently faces a major strategic challenge to move from being a federation to an enterprise. This is an opportunity to hear how BAT is tackling these important issues, and to share the experiences from your company, all in the carefully controlled, closed setting of a NetGroup community event.

If you have responsibility for strategic development within your company and have developed mechanisms, processes and governance structures to support this, please come and join our roundtable discussion.

Host & case study from
BAT plc
