Strategic Planning, Execution, and Performance Management
Turning Strategy into Results Through Disciplined Planning and Execution
About this course
Many organisations invest heavily in crafting an ambitious strategic plan, only to see it stall at the point of execution. Strategy fails not for lack of good ideas, but because planning and execution are treated as separate exercises, performance is not properly tracked against strategic intent, and accountability for delivery is unclear. Closing the gap between strategy and results requires a disciplined, integrated approach to planning, execution and performance management.
This Seya Capital course equips delegates with the frameworks and practical skills needed to plan, execute and manage performance against strategy — covering strategic analysis and formulation, translating strategy into actionable plans, execution and delivery management, and building performance management systems that keep the organisation accountable to its strategic goals.
