Transformational Change and Strategic Leadership

Companies and industries are experiencing radical change in how they operate and serve their customers. Many of them are undergoing transformational change, adopting new business models quite different from how they originally started.  This is happening within a relatively short period of time, for if they don’t evolve they face obsolescence and a quick market exit. This course prepares leaders and senior management to successfully deal with new business realities introduced by rapid, and in many cases turbulent, market shifts.  It also avails to them the opportunity to explore new alternatives to their existing business models, and equip them with leading strategic and planning tools to prepare their organizations for the next transformational journey.

From the outset, participants are requested to come prepared with transformational business challenges they are currently facing. Throughout the course they are guided through the course content and material, and coached on how to use relevant tools, business cases, and strategic models and concepts. Ultimately, they will produce a transformational business plan they can present, share and discuss with their teams upon their return, and prepare the grounds for the next steps in leading a transformational change within their organizations.

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

• Build awareness and understanding about the significance of transformational change
• Select a team of key managers and opinion formers who will drive the desired change
• Generate acceptance across the organization towards the overall process of transformation
• Maintain strong and open channels of communication around the transformational journey
