Business Strategy Development: Maximising Growth & Sustainability [Classroom Facilitated, Asynchronous E-Learning]

About This Course

The speed with which the world changes makes it critical for businesses to keep their eye on the external market and environment, and incorporate key insights into their strategic plans. This is imperative for businesses not just to ensure that they are leveraging opportunities and mitigating risks in a timely manner, but to sustain growth and competitive edge.

In this course, you will learn what external factors are relevant to your business, how to analyse them, and importantly, to identify the ones that are most critical to your business success. You will also acquire the ability to develop and implement a sharp and solution-oriented strategy that roadmaps a clear and performance-based action plan, while expending (limited) resources only on what matters most.

Additionally, you will learn how to influence the organisation's business strategies from the perspective of human resource (HR) and workforce capability. This includes identifying and scoping business requirements and priorities through rigorous information gathering and analysis, as well as clarifying the solutions, initiatives, and programmes to enable effective delivery. You will also develop a compelling and defensible business case and articulate the potential impact of the solution to the business.

Applied properly, your business can gain the potential outcome of an optimally-run business that is resilient and agile in responding and adapting to changes, and able to continually reap more efficient ROI and leverage growth opportunities – especially in the relentlessly aggressive, complex, and ever-evolving world of today.
