Strategic thinking skills for managers

A strategic manager does not merely maintain the status quo through active and creative strategic management, but is also responsible for moving the "SBU" into new areas of productivity and profitability. It is this type of management that requires each and every manager to be a strategist.

Your international facilitator, Ian Mann, will highlight the skills, processes and mechanics you need to be an outstanding strategist and a dynamic strategic manager. By attending this course you will learn how to improve the performance of your Strategic Business Unit "SBU" and of your staff by using specially developed methods to "cause the right things to happen" in your organisation.

Register today and you will determine:

• Why every unit and department needs strategy
• How strategy is completely different from business to business and industry to industry
• Why failing to deliberately formulate a strategy is a strategy anyway - but a weak and dangerous one
• Why the effects are rarely felt quickly
• Why the implications of today's decisions will be felt only in the future when it is too late to change!

Discover that planning ahead can be based more on foresight than luck and learn how to deal with unpredictability successfully!
