The Certified Strategist: From Planning to Execution

Today's unpredictable environment is utterly incompatible with what, historically, has been strategists' roles: leading the annual strategic-planning process. This program will show how strategists should increase the scope and complexity of their roles beyond planning by thinking differently about what it means to develop great strategy by dedicating less time running the planning process and more time engaging broader groups inside and outside the company, going beyond templates and calendars, and mirroring the dynamism of the external environment. During the course of the program, participants will realize that achieving real impact today requires strategists to stretch beyond strategic planning to develop at least one of a few signature strengths such as reallocating corporate resources, building strategic capabilities at key places in the organization, identifying business-development opportunities, and generating proprietary insights on the basis of external forces at work and long-term market trends.

All levels of managers and company personnel who are involved in charting and supporting the execution of the company plans to achieve its strategic goals and objectives.

Global economics proves to us on a daily basis the organisational need for ‘fore-most’ and ‘leading’ talent in order to succeed in increasingly complex and competitive global markets. In order to achieve the ‘best’ possible result for organizations, developing the right talent is as much a necessity as hiring and retaining employees.
