Strategic Planning
Ensuring the organisation thrives long-term
The life of an organisation is marked by ups and downs. The saying goes that “success” has many parents, while “failure” is an orphan. Very often, when our organisation is in deadlock, as managers we ask ourselves if we did everything that we could have to prevent the problems.
Winners are not perfect. They just made fewer mistakes than their counterparts. It is known that during crises, initiative arises from those best prepared to face the problem.
This course will help us not only to ensure that our organisation stays healthy, from a financial and operational standpoint, but also to project where the company will find itself in the next 5, 10 or even 50 years…
