How to become a strategic leader

The word ‘strategy’ might conjure up images of generals surveying a battlefield or a sports coach drilling their team on the game plan. But the truth is that strategy belongs in the workplace too, and not just in fancy corporations: strategic thinking is also key for government.

The benefits of being a strategic thinker are myriad, from helping you plan ahead and solve problems to identifying connections, patterns and key issues. This makes strategic thinking a key skill for leaders in government.

Yet most organisations experience a shortfall of strategic thinkers. One survey found that only 8% of senior executives can be identified as strategic leaders. This workshop will show you how you can plug this strategic thinking gap and start developing your strategic leadership skills.
