Darrell Woodward, CP APMP and Director at Prosfora Solutions Ltd joined us on The Inventive Podcast to discuss how to create winning RFPs using storytelling and GenAI. Key takeaways: 1. Storytelling Wins Deals: Secret to winning proposals lies in compelling storytelling where the client is the hero, not just ticking compliance boxes. 2. AI: Friend or Enemy?: While AI is revolutionizing proposal management by enhancing efficiency and quality, Darrell warns against using these gains to simply churn out more bids. 3. Qualify or Die: Rigorous qualification process is crucial, challenging the widespread notion that more bids mean more wins. 4. Beat the Bias: Understanding cognitive biases like confirmation bias and anchoring can give your proposals the edge in influencing decision-makers. 5. Well-being Over Burnout: there are detrimental effects of the superhero bid manager culture, and teams need a healthier work-life balance.
