Tools and Techniques for Strategic Planning
Details
The business world is getting more competitive and uncertain by the day. A key skill of managers would be the ability to quickly appreciate and understand the need for Strategic Planning in a company. They will have an opportunity to share their current practice, discuss how other companies have done it and to then better understand strategic planning.
The next step would require them to initiate (or enhance) and carry out a strategic planning process. They need to know the key steps, tools and techniques to use to be able to do this effectively.
This 1-day workshop provides and explains, in very clear steps, these useful tools & techniques plus how to apply them in a business case…. for practice.
