What you'll learn
Have you ever encountered business problems that seemed too complex, with too many different parts, and you didn’t know where to even start? Learn how to break down business problems systematically into manageable parts, which you can distribute across your team to maximize efficiency in execution.
By the end of the session, you will know how to:
- Apply the 7-Step Problem-Solving Approach to any problem
- Define a problem statement properly, to ensure you are working on the right problem
- Break down problems to their component parts that are mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive (MECE)
- Identify the key issues in your business problem, and prioritize them according to impact and ease of implementation
How often have you heard a leader or executive being classified as “strategic” vs. “not strategic”? Careers have been limited due to “lack of strategic thinking”. What does this mean, and how do you address it? Develop your strategic thinking skills by learning approaches, techniques, and yes, frameworks – used by top strategy consulting firms. Learn how to analyze both external (industry, environment) and internal (company-specific) factors to define your organization’s strategy & lay out an actionable execution plan.
By the end of the session, you will know how to:
- Define what strategy is, in a practical and actionable way
- Utilize key strategic frameworks to understand the attractiveness of business opportunities
- Evaluate your own company’s assets & competitive advantages, in order to decide which strategic opportunities & initiatives to pursue or prioritize
In essentially all business issues, initiatives, and plans – all roads lead to the business / financial case. This is the quantitative justification of why certain projects or plans must be pursued. Typically, it is the single most important piece of analysis that leads to important management actions and/or business decisions – starting a new business, opening a new store, pursuing a specific strategy, spending a certain amount of money, hiring a new team, and so on. In this session, we will learn how to conduct a key analysis that every professional or entrepreneur should know how to do.
By the end of the session, you will know how to:
- Identify the key elements of a business case – especially the financial case (the numbers!)
- Build a business/financial case (also known as the financial model) from scratch
- Conduct key analyses (such as NPV and IRR analyses) that give you actionable answers and decision points
The most effective professionals & leaders aren’t just great problem-solvers – they are also great communicators. A clear, concise, and logical way of communicating is essential when driving change in any type of organization – whether you’re an entrepreneur with a small business, a leader at a large company, or an advisor who must work through others to get things done. Learn and practice the Pyramid Principle, a tried-and-tested approach to communicate effectively, and other techniques to broaden your communication toolbox as a manager & leader.
By the end of the session, you will know how to:
- Use the Pyramid Principle to organize your ideas & logic, and communicate them effectively
