Why Choose this Training Course?

This challenging and interactive training course focuses on the strategic planning and leadership needed by high-performance organisations to succeed in reaching the objectives of Vision 2030 Realization.

Focusing on the need for strategic planning to add real value to stakeholders and customers, thereby ensuring sustainability, delegates will develop skills in strategy development as well as addressing the challenges of effective leadership implementation.

Delivery today requires leaders to not just improve themselves and understand their own organization’s plans, assets, and people but increasingly they must plan to leverage the capabilities, from outside of it.  Delegates will have the opportunity to share experiences and good practice, together with input from latest management practices. They will evaluate the effectiveness of systems and processes as well as the ‘soft’ organizational factors, such as communications and performance management, needed to develop mindsets and behaviours for successful Vision 2030 Realization. Further, the training course will enable delegates to engage with classic negotiation techniques, to refresh their leadership, teamwork, relationship skills, in the context of critical partner management.
