Description
Most organizations struggle to execute the full potential of their business strategies. You need to ask yourself several important questions:
- Is your implementation bold, focused, and as simple as possible?
- Do you mobilize the right resources?
- Do you leverage insights on customers and competitors?
- Do you promote team engagement and cross-business cooperation?
- Do you own the decisions you make?
- Do you have an agile organization?
- Do you conduct the right projects in your portfolio at the right time?
This immersive, experiential simulation lab will show you how to deliver a given strategy. It will also give you deep insight into the nature of practical change management, decision-making, portfolio management, and an agile mindset. The training comes at the right time as we enter a new era of profound change. Anchored by a high-reality computer simulation of a small business needing to re-invent itself and grow into a medium-sized business, the lab creates a highly engaging, hands-on environment that will enable you to experience collaborative decisions with other functional team members while considering project portfolios to support delivery of the required strategy.
