“For me, the biggest ‘aha!’ was realizing that even though we, as a senior leadership team, are very good at communicating our corporate message throughout the organization, we can use some simple strategies to make sure that everyone not only knows our strategies, but lives them. By having the entire team fully embrace their part of the puzzle, we will have more motivated team members.”
“Coming into the class, I was very narrow in my thinking around my strategic challenge, but by the end of the week it became much broader in scope. Although there were many takeaways, I will be focusing on developing and using strategic influence in helping others to become more strategic throughout our organization.”

“Going into an online-only course, I was a bit concerned. But the amount of engagement that was offered in this course — along with the hands-on virtual labs — was incredible… The breakout sessions for further dialog really allowed the [concepts] to hit home with me. I would highly recommend this course for any leader making the transition from an operational mindset to strategic mindset.
