About this training
In a fast-changing business environment, strategic thinking is a truly invaluable skill to increase your chances of success.

During this training, you will learn how to assess and improve mission and value statements. You will get a clear view of the current business idea and its strategic strengths and weaknesses. Next, you will conduct an external analysis by use of different models to complete the final picture of the starting position. You will now have set the stage for creating a new successful future.
During the second day, you will focus on scenario planning, identification of uncertainties and scenario dimensions. You will learn how to develop different scenarios and catch their essence in inspiring mood boards. From there you will sort and assess these ideas and develop a compelling vision for the future.
