It’s one of the most common reasons leaders don’t delegate complex work to their teams: “They don’t think strategically enough.” But what is strategic thinking and how can the skill be learnt?
This bundle of courses is designed to enable junior and middle managers to develop their skillset so they can contribute to the strategic direction of the business. This includes learning techniques that help inform the strategy, such as measuring customer outcomes, and how to work with important stakeholders such as marketing to execute that strategy.

- Gain insight into implementing organisational support via a cross-functional team to agree what metrics to use and why.

Benefits to your business
This workshop explores the ‘golden thread’- the link from vision, values and purpose through to the day to day activity. It introduces common strategic models and some thinking activities designed to initiate creative and big thinking that can be replicated in the working environment long after the workshop is over.
People who ‘get’ the vision of the organisation they work for, and buy into it, become more effective decision makers and are able to work more autonomously. An organisation that pulls on the brainpower of hundreds, or thousands, of people is always going to outperform one that has to rely on a few people at the top directing everyone else.
Aligning your contact centre operations with the objectives of the wider business ensures that the necessary resources are available to optimise results. That leads to more new customers and more customers retained.
