About the Program

Strategic Thinkers will define the future, while possessing the mental agility to adapt virtually any plan to any context, especially in this fast-paced, global marketplace—yet how do we develop this for individuals? This course emphasizes how to develop a more-strategic mind & enact strategic behaviors through key frameworks and step-by-step methods. The Strategic Mind focuses participants on crafting novel, visionary approaches that will both challenge and synergize with conventional approaches. Those with these perspectives balance future states with past and present contexts, seize opportunities and manage risks simultaneously, align with the organization’s goals and challenge rigid mind blocks. They think in systems that coordinate disciplined focus with desired outcomes. Through this course, participants will:

• Learn to redefine “the rules of the game” and shift toward concrete mode of thought and action
• Develop mental acuity through a variety of strategic methods and processes
• Envision the future state, while accounting for the past and present state
• Boost proactive behavior and initiative in structured ways
