As the Global Economic Crisis (GEC) passes through the one-year mark, most organisations have made the necessary decisions to ensure survival in the short term by cutting costs and preserving cash.
In spite of mixed global data, early indications show that Asian economies and especially the Indian economy, will recover much more quickly than their Western counterparts. We in India, in particular, have managed to maintain an impressively positive growth rate through the global downturn. In spite of these “green shoots” the global downturn remains a clear and present threat to global and regional growth at least into 2010. |

Investing in your management system to ensure a more dynamic and connected approach that brings together strategy, operations, policy, and risk is essential to avoid the mistakes of the past and to allow for a more nimble and flexible approach for the future. |

This intensive, hands-on workshop will demonstrate to you how your management system can become a competitive weapon enabling your organisation to execute faster and with more certainty than your competition.
The first of a series of workshops under the Lead from the Front initiative will focus on introducing the new 6-stage management process to delegates for the first time. |
|
According to many top CEOs including Jack Welch, a mediocre strategy well executed is much better than an excellent strategy executed poorly. In this workshop you will learn methods to formulate and modify an excellent strategy and how to execute it even better so you can lead from the front. |
|
| We have been asking hundreds of CEOs across industries on their management issues and some of the common comments we hear are: |
 Our ideas are not getting to the people down the line
We have an idea of where we want to go but we have not gotten down to putting it formally
People do not share the same vision
We do not know if our strategy is working
Employees are not motivated
We want to drive a major change but people do not see the reason for change
We cannot manage something we cannot measure
How do we measure something like organisation culture or human capital?
Most of our meetings are operational as we discuss numbers, how do we get everyone to discuss strategy?
We find it tough to manage performance and monitor progress of our strategy
Sometimes it is too late to do any change in action to achieve strategy
Our people are not aligned
Too many initiatives in our organisation |
|
|
We find quite often the top management themselves do not clearly articulate the company strategy well.
In this high level workshop, we will help senior executives with frameworks and processes that will help them overcome strategy implementation issues and drive superior performance.
Delegates will learn leading edge techniques, examine best practice case studies and hear from renowned experts how to overcome present performance challenges. Takeaways include proven performance measurement practices, frameworks, and systems that will help immediately improve the monitoring and management of business performance. |
