Masterclass: Leading change projects successfully for bid managers and leaders

Managing change is just like managing bids - you're aiming for a win, but success isn't guaranteed.

With 70% of change projects failing, how can bid teams leverage their existing skills to beat those odds?

Join Nigel Thacker, a seasoned bid expert with over 20 years of experience across FTSE 100s, PE-backed firms, and SMEs, to discover how to make your next change initiative stick. He runs Rebidding Solutions, mentors through APMP, and recently launched mybidcareer, home to the first management and leadership course for bidders.

In this Bid Management Masterclass, you'll learn proven strategies to identify pitfalls, build winning coalitions, communicate effectively, and integrate AI seamlessly into your change processes.

Make change work for you, just like your best bids.
