Strategic Planning and Goal Setting: Setting Business Goals, Targets and Deliverables Online Course

Effective strategic planning is essential to the future success of any organization.  However, most strategic planning is lacking in vision.  It is merely a straight-line extrapolation of the past into the future.  In a world where the pace of change is greater than ever before this is at best shortsighted and at worst a prescription for disaster. Real strategic planning is about positioning the organization for a future which will be different from the past.  This new workshop will focus on strategic planning as the essential management system guiding the organization into the future by setting focused goals that will establish and enhance competitiveness.
