Join Keith Parker, Managing Director and Founder of The Proposal Centre, as he uncovers the hidden truths and unlocks the elusive secrets of proposal success. Fear not! Proposals are not the evil most of us believe them to be. In his presentation Keith will share with attendees the tips and techniques that make proposal writing bearable, if not fun, and most importantly, consistently successful. From how to make the bid-no bid decision, to tips and techniques on how to respond to Government Requests for Proposals (RFP), the materials covered during this presentation will be applicable to proposals primarily in the public and not-for-profit sectors, with particular focus on how to respond to bids with the federal and other levels of government.
Proposals are truly part art and part science. Come find out why!
