A business alliance is a formal business
relationship between two or more organizations to
achieve collective business objectives.
Examples - Joint ventures, franchising, cross-
licensing, cross-marketing and co-manufacturing
are just some of the formal structures used to
govern business alliances.
Each type of alliance offers both advantages and
disadvantages, but generally enables a company to
realize its growth potential more quickly than if
pursuing an objective alone.
20. STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES
A business partnership can help a company to
achieve strategic business objectives through the
collective objectives of the partners.
While conflicting goals, objectives, strategies,
ethical standards and business values are some
potential threats posed by alliances, opportunities
to grow sales can be realized through access to
new customers and increased production
capabilities.
The clearest sign of alliance success is growing
trust between the partners

about building long-term relationships and a good
reputation over time. It involves meeting and

who can potentially help you in return.
Your network includes everyone from friends and
family to work colleagues and members of groups
to which you belong.

forming trust and helping one another toward goals.

supportive by offering useful
information or tips to people
who need it.
27. BENEFITS OF NETWORKING
Access to opportunities
Expanding your contacts can open doors to new
opportunities for business, career advancement, personal
growth, or simply new knowledge.
Active networking helps to keep you top of mind when
opportunities such as job openings arise and increases
your likelihood of receiving introductions to potentially
relevant people or even a referral.

to exchange best practice
knowledge, learn about the
business techniques of your peers
and stay abreast of the latest
industry developments.

peers is an important benefit of
networking. Discussing common
challenges and opportunities opens
the door to valuable suggestions
and guidance.

return when you need it.
