strategy design and
implementation

:: Duration: 1 Day
:: Price: R 1, 500-00 per delegate per day.

So how do you as a leader ensure that the strategy is achieved?
Do you currently know whether it is being achieved?
Is your organisation aligned to the strategy?
Do you know what success looks like?
What do you base your reviews on?
How do you monitor progress?

First Facilitation has developed a powerful facilitated approach using the Thompson & Strickland model, supported by a dynamic change management approach developed by John P. Kotter.

:: Objective
The tasks of crafting, implementing, and executing company strategies are the heart and soul of managing a business enterprise. The continued success and sustainability of any business is dependent on the ability of the executives to develop and deliver strategy successfully.

Strategy execution deals with the managerial exercise of supervising the ongoing pursuit of strategy, making it work, improving the competence with which it is executed, and showing measurable progress in achieving the targeted results.

The objective of the 1 day workshop is to equip the delegates with the methodology for designing the strategy and an implementation approach that converts strategy into action. The approach will provide the framework for the allocation of ownership, measurement of progress, alignment and a change management approach to get the buy in and commitment critical to the success of any strategy.

:: Target audience
The workshop is targeted at the executive team who are responsible and accountable for the design and delivery of the strategy and the expected measures of success.

“What do you want to achieve or avoid? The answers to this question are objectives. How will you go about achieving your desire results? The answer to this you can call strategy.”
