Collaboration Systems

Gerson Lehrman Group can arrange different types of interactions that are appropriate for every research need, ranging from quick inquiries to comprehensive due diligence efforts. These include:

• Telephone Consultations Direct conversations with Council Members efficiently deliver relevant industry overviews. Typical turnaround time for consultation requests is less than 48 hours, with many arranged in under 24 hours.
• Live Meetings Every year, thousands of meetings between clients and Council Members in GLG Member Programs are programmed in a variety of formats, from formal seminars and collaborative discussions, to site tours and private in-office one-on-ones.
• Written Products These include both expert surveys of Council Member populations, as well as a variety of customized reports by experts in GLG Member Programs, including single-author reports, collaborative multi-author reports, market studies, in which one or several experts create and comment on a consumer survey.  In addition, GLG News service provides commentary from experts on important news items.

In addition, GLG is always developing new ways to tap the knowledge and expertise of the GLG Councils. These new services, some in the earliest stages of testing, seek to improve information access in novel ways.
