Advanced Managerial Competence and Strategy Development

Why Attend

Why do some organizations continually succeed in meeting stakeholders’ expectations while others do not? Why do some organizations have a roller-coaster performance record? One of the key differentiators between all these types of organizations is the existence and proper execution of a mid to long-term strategy.
In this course, we will dig deep into many well-established frameworks, tools and techniques for strategic planning and execution. Participants will be able to pinpoint the real reasons behind long- term strategic performance, and they will be able to replicate this success in their own organizations.
