Strategy for Beginners

What's it all about?

Almost all organisations have a strategic plan that is dusted off every now and again to check the general direction. But be honest how valuable are they? – We have all been there – timelines, objectives, goals, grand vision statements etc. With organisations face unprecedented amounts of change how do you build workable and useful strategies that, on the one hand, provide direction and on the other, build in the flexibility to grab opportunities.

The day is an intensive look at strategy from a number of perspectives ranging from the conventional to the weird.
