Mini MBA in Reinventing Strategic Planning

Strategy used to be about prediction. Now it is about readiness. This four-week Mini MBA gives you the frameworks and tools to lead through complexity, rethink outdated planning cycles, and drive renewal in your organisation—even when the future is unclear. Whether you are navigating disrupted markets, building organisational agility, or simply need to move past the strategic theatre of long documents no one reads, this four-week course delivers what modern leaders need.

What you will explore:

1. Rethinking the Traditional Strategic Planning Cycle
Break free from fixed plans and static timelines. Learn how to rebuild strategy as a responsive, evolving system rooted in alignment, judgement and renewal. Discover the four pillars of Third Wave Strategy and how to shift from prediction to adaptive practice.

2. Framing Strategic Plans for Volatile Markets
Planning under pressure demands more than good intentions. Explore how different decision modes—blink, dextrous, satisficing, and muddling through—can help you respond faster, lead with clarity, and make strategy part of everyday conversations.

3. Decision Making Under Uncertainty
Understand how to map uncertainty at three levels—external forces, competitive change, and internal alignment. Learn to apply tools like scenario analysis, capability renewal and value chain reviews to sharpen strategy without overengineering it.

4. Introducing New Strategic Frameworks
It is time to modernise how strategy is practised. This module shows how to embed feedback loops, create adaptive triggers and support real-time decision processes. You will see how flexible frameworks outlast perfect forecasts—and why strategy is now a professional practice, not just a planning task.

Who should attend:
Designed for senior managers, team leaders, strategy professionals and change agents who want to build credibility, influence decisions, and drive performance in uncertain times. No long theory lectures—just sharp insights, actionable models and a fresh approach to strategic practice.

Get ready to drop the jargon and pick up real tools. This Mini MBA helps you build a system of strategy that works when everything else changes. Join us and take control of how your organisation thinks, plans and adapts.
