In many cases, a client develops an IP strategy due to the desire to approach a specific business need in a planned and proactive manner.

The training must be focused on and directed to the problem at hand, or the IP professional could lose the audience. This type of 'guidance training' can be accomplished by tackling the task in two parts. The first part provides a brief IP foundation; the second part provides alternatives and options to help address the specific strategic issue.
