Course Details

The pandemic crisis has shifted perspectives on strategy. Strategic planning has often been viewed as an annual event but now, strategy is viewed as a continuous process that evolves and moves dynamically.

The latest research and practice emphasise the importance of knowing how to transform your business with speed and agility in response to disruption and complexity.

For this reason, the responsibility for strategy formulation and deployment has moved from the executive suite to the broader organisation. The pandemic has accelerated these trends and placed greater emphasis on all leaders understanding how to set strategic priorities and deliver on them consistently.  

This course focuses on the tools and techniques that enable you to transform the way you think about strategy and do it in your organisation.

You will learn to analyse the current situation, determine relative strengths and weaknesses of the organisation or function, identify core competencies and align the plan to the needs of your external customers.

You will be able to write the storyboard of your organisation’s evolution as it strives to achieve its vision and goals. You will see the difference between tactics, operational decisions and strategic imperatives and know what to do to deliver increased value to your customers.
