Overview :
As an executive taking on greater leadership responsibilities, you need to learn how to think more strategically and develop an effective strategy for your unit or organisation. Strategic Thinking gives you tools to undertake a thorough strategic diagnosis.
You analyse capabilities, strengths, weaknesses and opportunities, and identify capability and resource gaps in your own business context that could impact your strategy’s implementation. By developing your ability to judge risk and value-creating potential, you will think more clearly about future challenges, developing new models and innovating to improve performance.
