INTRODUCTION
In order to be successful managers must have the ability to plan
strategically. Developing this competency is a key component of
managerial skills enhancement given that effective strategic planning
is essential to the future success of any organization. However, most
strategic planning is lacking in vision. It is merely a straight-line
extrapolation of the past into the future. In a world where the pace of
change is greater than ever before this is at best short-sighted and at
worst a prescription for disaster.
Real strategic planning is about positioning the organization for a
future which will be different from the past. This GLOMACS Strategic
Planning & Goal Setting training seminar will focus on strategic
planning as the essential management system guiding the manager
and organization into the future by setting focused goals that will
establish and enhance competitiveness. This GLOMACS training
seminar will also focus on the necessity of developing both personal
mental agility and organizational agility. Close examination will be
made of the driving forces creating both strategic successes and
failures.
