Advisory board chairmanship and facilitation –
Our Principal Consultant, Tim Mustill has chaired, moderated and facilitated innumerable advisory boards and other meetings across all major therapy areas. These have ranged from short evening meetings to 3 day academic summits. Sensitive, effective and pro-active meeting facilitation is a fine art, especially when dealing with global thought leaders and mixed teams of clients and customers. We have honed this skill to perfection over many years and in many contrasting advisory board settings. Furthermore Astrocyte can help you devise clear objectives, develop creative agendas, identify attendees and run the meetings as well as provide clear minutes and follow up reports.
Innovative meetings design and development
In a time-poor, work-intensive environment, with external relationships under increasing scrutiny, making the most of physical meetings is vitally important. Whether it is a short strategic review or a full advisory board with global thought leaders Astrocyte can help you develop an engaging, novel and creative meeting design which optimises involvement and participation, ensures you reach your objectives, answer all your questions and leave the delegates with a positive experience.
Competitor review workshops
Getting a clear handle on the competition and the ever-changing market landscape is key to a successful new brand launch. Astrocyte have run many competitor review workshops (occasionally referred to as ‘war games’). We can bring our strategic planning and creative meetings design skills to bear to build the perfect competitor scoping forum or workshop (including pre and post-meeting materials and on-going competitor activity scanning).
Focus groups
Astrocyte can arrange, run and report focus groups in most major therapy areas. Sometimes an urgent issue cannot wait for a full advisory board meeting and market research cannot provide the subtleties of a face to face interaction. In theses circumstances when you need a quick answer, a rapid external perspective or simply need to validate research, a focus group can be the perfect solution. We can quickly and efficiently help organize cost-effective and highly informative focus groups.
