Implementing Strategy

You have your strategy – now implement it! This workshop provides a clear, logical process for translating an organisation’s high-level strategy into practical activity. It highlights the key steps and potential pitfalls along the way and provides a rounded view of the issues and challenges which will impact on achieving desired results.

You will benefit from having a clear understanding of how to organise and prepare for successful strategy implementation. You will also learn how to get your strategy implementation off to a good start, keep it on track, deliver the desired results and learn from your real time experiences.

An organisation’s strategy can only impact on the bottom line if it is successfully implemented. Many would argue that drafting a strategy is the easy part and that the key challenge lies in its proper implementation. This workshop provides a framework for successful strategy implementation.

This workshop is suitable for managers who are responsible for implementing their organisation’s strategy at a strategic and operational level. This could include managers who are leading teams, business units or business development programmes. The workshop would also help those who are involved in their organisation’s strategy implementation from key functions, such as the marketing and sales teams, finance and operations.
