PRAIORITIZE has been used for a wide variety of consulting topics (in Strategy, Human Resources, Information Technology, Marketing & Sales, and in Supply Chain Management) in a wide variety of industries in more than 30 countries. Usually, the topics have a rather strategic context and more than often affect the entire (or a large part of the organization) and in many cases several, if not many, organizations.
For example, a consultant creates a Project about Team Effectiveness. The consultant sends the resulting link/URL to several of their clients. These clients open the wizard, perform some last, minor modifications, do a test run, and send the link to the respondents in their organizations. The clients have immediate access to their Group Virtual Consultant as well as to the Group Virtual Consultants per department, location, role, etc.
These Virtual Consultants address not only the actual situation but also ambition, target setting, organizational alignment, priority settings, knowledge sharing, waste reduction, online Do-It-Yourself workshops, and much more. These Virtual Consultants explain themselves. Therefore, there is more attention to short, explanatory one-liners and simple-to-use tables than advanced graphics. This simplicity is fueled by state-of-the-art pattern recognition and artificial intelligence that runs in the background.
