Course Summary

Strategic thinking is a process whereby you can consider various factors and variables, consider your goals and objectives, and then develop clear plans of action. A big part of this is setting clear and actionable goals, determining how achievable they are and in what time frame, and considering the possible outcome, setbacks and opportunities that may arise. This is why strategic thinkers spend a lot of time thinking about risks and possibilities, as these occurrences can have major effects on their plans. A strategic thinker is therefore also greatly concerned with contingency planning, flexibility, and feedback mechanisms.

To thrive in today’s fact paced and dynamic environment, business professionals need to cultivate a unique set of strategic thinking skills that enable them to navigate complexities, inspire teams, and make strategic decisions with confidence. This training course has been carefully designed to provide a holistic understanding of strategic thinking and Planning.
