What is the Mid-Market Strategic Partnerships course about?

Mid-market organizations pursuing strategic growth often lack repeatable frameworks for evaluating and onboarding partners. This leads to delayed integrations, mismatched expectations, and missed synergies, especially when M&A activity increases complexity. Traditional partnership models don’t account for the speed and operational rigor required in acquisitive environments.
