Training Course Overview

Why do some organizations struggle to stay competitive in the market, while others achieve outstanding results in the modern world?

A major reason for this struggle is the lack of a robust framework for effective strategy execution. Without the necessary strategic awareness, skills, and knowledge, organizations fail to translate strategy into actionable plans. Professionals must develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required to move from strategic planning to tactical execution, ensuring that outcomes align with the organization's goals.

To bridge this gap, organizations need a Performance Management System that links strategies to operational and technical objectives by collecting, analyzing, and reporting performance data.

This Mini MBA: Strategic, Operational & Tactical Leadership training course covers the full spectrum of strategic management. You will learn powerful techniques for strategy development and formulation, create dynamic operational structures and systems, and implement effective processes and resources for strategy execution. The course also focuses on operational leadership to support front-line managers and employees, fostering the conditions for their success, and providing hands-on experience in tactical leadership.

Through this program, you will gain the most effective methods for building and leading adaptable, high-performing teams and organizations, and achieving a competitive edge in today’s business environment.
