Introduction
Training course introducion / brief

Strategic Planning prepares the organization to respond to changes in the environment in which it operates. It is an essential activity to ensure that everyone in our organization is working toward the same goals, and to measure and modify the organization’s direction in response to this changing environment. By identifying organizational, rather than programmatic, goals and objectives, and more importantly, prioritizing these goals and objectives, we can make the difficult decisions about what is most important to achieving organizational success. Strategic Planning enables an Organization to shape and guide its overall business objectives. Through effective Strategic Planning, an organization creates a framework for developing, adapting and aligning organizational vision, mission and goals to achieve and sustain competitive advantage. In this course, you gain the knowledge needed to formulate, execute and monitor the strategic planning for your organization based on proven analytical techniques and models.
