Successful initiatives and projects translated from strategies are not achieved by chance, but by doing the right things right the first time, every time. Strategic Leadership participation at the early stage of the projects is crucial in ensuring that exceptional results are achieved with careful and well laid down plans and are not left to happen by chance. In addition, to ensuring the mastering and consistently applying the techniques, tools, and skills of effective execution and management, executives together with leadership team must ensure all resources are allocated effectively to align with the business strategy. Their involvement makes business and project execution a key, sustainable and competitive advantage for their company.

Course Overview

The course is five days in length and will introduce the Strategic Leadership and Management framework to implement a robust and predictable process for converting strategies into actions for organizational growth and improved profitability.

This training offers a cutting-edge strategic management framework with tools and techniques that will help organizations achieve maximum performance in their business operation both for all improvements and innovative initiatives. This is done by employing a governance model throughout the entire lifecycle of a business or project from the very early stage of idea generation through continuously evaluating key measures and strategic business objectives, and finally tracking their execution and benefits/value realization in a centralized fashion.

 The Strategies into Actions session for strategic leadership is a facilitated session developed to prepare senior executives and managers to understand the framework and utilize tools and techniques that will help align and translate strategy and its strategic objectives into specific deliverables which are executable operating plans with transformation programs – acting as a bridge between strategy and execution.

Further, the workshop will seek to explore how to embed strategy and portfolio processes within the organization that help filter demand for projects that are necessary and aligned to the strategy and strategic goals.

Finally, we will discuss how a well-accepted strategy and portfolio management approach creates a greater emphasis on transparency and open conversation which helps business partners to understand the value of their portfolios and the successful completion of the projects.
