Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
How does SPRITE+ match an organisation with an Expert Fellow?
Once an organisation submits a problem statement, SPRITE+ matches it with best-suited Expert Fellow from the SPRITE+ network. SPRITE+ then provides the identified Expert Fellow with the problem statement.
If the Expert Fellow is interested and has capacity to engage with the organisation, SPRITE+ will provide the contact details of the Expert Fellow to the organisation.
What can organisations expect from meeting with an Expert Fellow?
As organisational needs vary and can be unique, we do not impose any specific format on the clinic. However, we encourage organisations to have a clear idea about what kind of information they would like to elicit from the Expert Fellow and formulate a particular objective of the meeting. These will be shared with Expert Fellows before the meeting, enabling Expert Fellows to have a clear understanding what organisations expect from them.
Organisational objectives can include, but are not limited to:
Exploring key developments in a particular field/technology relevant to their organisation,
Developing a better understanding of a poorly specified problem,
Exploring avenues to approaching a complex problem,
Building a relationship with an Expert Fellow that can extend beyond the initial clinic.
Is one hour is enough to provide in-depth insight into the problem of area of interest?
The initial sponsored meetings are not intended to provide in-depth insight or specific advice.
In case organisations would like to continue engagement with the specific Expert Fellow, they are expected to make their own arrangements with regards to fees and other terms of engagement. This is out of scope of the initial clinic session.
What happens after the meeting?
We will ask both parties to complete a feedback form so that we can keep improving and fine-tuning the clinic service. After that, it is entirely up to the organisation and the Expert Fellow.
The organisation may decide the objectives of the meeting have been achieved and no further engagement is necessary. Alternatively, the organisation may decide they would like to continue the relationship with the Expert Fellow in the form of a consultancy project, expert advice, a workshop, executive education, etc. SPRITE+ will not be directly involved in this.
