Effective Business Strategy and Leadership

Course details

Business Strategy and Leadership are inextricably linked and Strategy is no longer a once-a-year process that creates a five-year plan to be placed in a three-ring binder and put on the shelf.  Business Strategy and Leadership are about planning, yes, but they are also about Execution.  "Planning without Execution is Hallucination", said an IBM executive.

In this course, you gain valuable strategic insight regardless of industry, business maturity, or current business turbulence and how to apply these insights based on the factors impacting your own business. Topics covered include:

• How to take MBA lessons, great models, and exceptional concepts and put them into play in the real world
