Course Description:

If strategy formulation tackles the ‘what’ and ‘why’ of the activities of the organisation, strategy implementation is all about ‘how’ the activities will be carried out, ‘who’ will perform them, ‘when’ and how often will they be performed, and ‘where’ will the activities be conducted.

This is where the real action takes place in the strategic management process, since this is where the tactics in the strategic plan will be transformed into actions or actual performance. It is the most rigorous and demanding part of the entire strategic management process, and the one that will require the most input of the organisation’s resources. However, if done right, it will ensure the achievement of objectives, and the success of the organisation.

This session will delve into the conceptual ‘marriage’ between planning, people, performance and how strategists and project leaders can get the most out of their strategy.

5 key areas this session will delve into are;

Defining your strategy framework
Building your plan
Defining KPIs
Establishing your strategy rhythm
Implementing strategy reporting
