Strategic Thinking: Virtual Edition

Make better decisions, solve problems and drive results

It is often easy to make tactical decisions that meet the specific needs of a particular situation. But how do you take a strategic approach to problem solving that goes beyond the short-term and delivers solutions that meet the longer term need?

It starts with strategic thinking.

In this half-day workshop, you will learn how to use The Drivers Model to apply strategic thinking to making decisions, solving problems, and driving results in a wide variety of situations. You will walk away with a process for thinking about any situation strategically. That is, any time there is a gap between where you are and where you want to be, the tools from the workshop help you think strategically about your vision, the barriers to achieving it, the conditions critical for success, and the strategies you can use to overcome the barriers and create the critical conditions that will sustain both short-term and long-term success.
