STRATEGIC PLANNING FOR BUSY LEADERS
Running a business involves a lot of moving parts, quick decisions and competing priorities. Many leaders don't believe they can afford to take time to plan long-term.
We believe they can't afford not to!

Workshop #2: Setting Strategic Goals

Workshop #3: Stakeholder Engagement
Wednesday 21 April | 15:00-17:00 WAST
For a strategy to succeed, leaders need buy-in from their stakeholders. This workshop will discuss how to identify your stakeholders, how to prioritize your stakeholders, and concrete strategies for trouble-shooting stakeholder management.
Workshop #4: Successful Strategy Implementation
Wednesday 28 April | 15:00-17:00 WAST
Once a strategic plan is complete, the work has only just begun. For a strategy to be successful, a leader needs to plan for its implementation as well as its development.
