Implementing Strategy for Results

Build the skills to evaluate strategy, increase alignment and drive execution to achieve business outcomes

In today’s business environment, every manager requires the tools to assess, interpret and implement an organisation's strategy in the context of their role and area of the organisation. This is so that they contribute positively to the realisation of the organisation's objectives. This course will help you to understand why strategy is important, how it relates to different stakeholders and parts of an organisation, and how to translate strategy into action.

Key Outcomes

You will take part in a series of online modules, comprised of virtual workshops, action learning and coaching to develop the skills, knowledge and tools to:

• Understand the intent of strategy and why strategic choices really matter to the business
• Identify the characteristics of what makes a “good” strategy
• Recognise and leverage critical communication channels and stakeholders
• Evaluate resources, systems and structures that impact successful strategy execution
• Identify silos and minimise their impact to leverage knowledge from across the organisation
• Improve alignment between your team culture and the organisational strategy
• Understand the levers that drive value for your organisation
• Champion strategy execution as a value-adding practice for the organisation
• Use storytelling and other communication methods to bring strategy to life
• Develop a strategy execution blueprint ready for implementation in your team, business unit or organisation

Program Experience

Led by an expert in strategy formulation and implementation who has held senior strategy roles at large global corporations, you will take part in live virtual workshops, interspersed with action learning to build an essential strategy toolkit.

Flexible Learning

Over two weeks, you will take part in approximately 14 hours of online learning and live workshops.

You will utilise The AGSM Navigator, a custom-built platform designed to work with your existing social and communication tools like Zoom.
