Course Description:
Whether you have just started your product stewardship career or are looking forward to retirement, a product steward must request funding to join associations, pay for product stewardship society membership, ask for new software, or hire additional staff. The session will begin with a brief panel discussion about what persuades upper management and executive decision-makers to allocate funding and other resources to product stewardship efforts. Following the panel discussion, the session will become interactive, and attendees will have the opportunity through oral or written exercises to practice persuading 'management' to approve and fund their requests.
