What has been the experience of other organisations in getting attendance from external stakeholders for an extended period of time?
The greatest reservation that most organisations have with future search goes along the lines of “There is no way that we can get external stakeholders to attend for the full time?” This is an assumption worth testing. Of course, there has never been such a thing as ‘perfect attendance’ at any future search. However, other organisations that have put the time and effort in to getting external people along have been pleasantly surprised at the attendance.
