3. Accompany your customers (3h)

We will breakdown this module in 3 sub-parts:

a) How do you train your customers, reviewing how to prepare and run the kick-off workshop (info needed, location, material, participants), what material you should use, how do you execute and what should be the expected outcome.
b) How to guide them during the journey, in particular the “mid-term compliance check” (to assess advancement, advising and setting the deadline for project), the final mock-audit, and what tool you should use for each step.
c) How to communicate, to learn how to work with the MarCom team (and culinary team, BEFORE and AFTER the audit results are out (review of the toolbox, of existing touchpoints, and design of the Action Plan).
