Who should attend
This course would be beneficial for any member of staff (manager or otherwise) who wishes to – or needs to – think strategically. This means looking up from the immediate operational issues to those that will drive forward the team/department etc in the longer term.
Course Description
Almost all organisations who are successful in the long term, plan for the long term. They will have a strategic plan, which will act as a framework against which more detailed operational plans are developed. The University is no different. But this type of planning – and thinking – is not solely useful at the most senior levels of an organisation. Many people can benefit from knowing the tools and techniques that are used, and learn how to apply them on a more local level. This course will introduce you to the tools and start you thinking as to how they can work for you.
