SAN DIEGO – October, 07 2015 – Ignite Advisory Group, the leading consultancy in the world focused exclusively on helping companies manage and optimize their partner and customer advisory board (CAB) programs, today announced it will hold two live training events focused specifically for CAB meeting facilitators. The detailed training programs will take place February 9-10 and September 20-21, 2016 in Atlanta, GA. The training is being offered due to high demand from CAB managers and facilitators, who have urged Ignite offer such training over the last few years.
“The CAB managers we’ve trained, consulted or met with at various events have pleaded with us to convey our deep CAB facilitation skills to their own team members, in order to get better results and higher ROI from their CAB programs,” said Eyal Danon, President and Founder of Ignite Advisory Group. “Facilitating a customer or partner advisory board requires skill, diplomacy and experience. Having successfully facilitated CAB meetings for years, no firm is more capable than Ignite to convey the proven best practices, guidance and tips to meeting facilitators.”

The training will include proven guidance on establishing and obtaining meeting objectives, managing an engaging discussion, enabling games to generate outside-the-box ideas, avoiding common pitfalls, and exceeding the high expectations of meeting participants. The training provides a groundwork and foundation for critical elements of CAB meeting management, and is hands-on with role-playing and group exercises to quickly learn and experiment with a variety CAB facilitation tactics.
