| Strategic Business Unit Planning: |
Strategic Managers act with precision in all areas that will drive profitability and growth, using the competencies of strategic thinking, critical thinking and planning.

Design: ½ day or one-day format |

| Strategic Communications: |
Strategic Managers build immediate rapport with every person with whom they come in contact, communicate their message clearly, influence behaviors, build and foster collaboration. They also reduce conflict and stress, and energize and mobilize people towards achieving goals. Design: ½ day or one-day format |

| Strategic Delegation: |
Strategic Managers know how to delegate; to entrust direct reports with the right tasks along with the appropriate decision making power and autonomy while maintaining ultimate responsibility. More than just another skill, it is a continuous and integral part of a strategic manager’s role. True delegation provides multiple benefits to the direct report, team, delegating manager, department and entire company as a whole. Design: ½ day format |
| |
| Decision Making: |
Strategic Managers leverage simple concepts and tools to help make decisions efficiently and prioritize decisions so the most important ones are made, while others less critical are delegated, demoted in priority, or eliminated.

| |
| Adapting and Leading Change: |
Strategic Managers know that a constant in the 21st Century is change. The ability to adapt to that change and lead others through the never ending waves of change separates the manager who will be successful in the new economy from those who will be passed over. Strategic Managers understand that people and organizations cannot develop without change. With a strategic focus, they create and lead others through purposeful change.
