Course Outline
Strategic planning is a consultative and stakeholder-driven process that involves formulating goals, objectives, and action steps, and monitoring implementation, tracking progress, and revising the plan. However, behind this seemingly simple process, there is the big task of senior management to build the capacity to think strategically and make forward looking but realistic decisions to plan, execute and adjust strategy to navigate unexpected events. A crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted higher education institutions in an unprecedented way, pushing leaders to re-think and reshape their strategies, work environment and culture for a sustainable future.
This course is designed to engage the participants through learning, reflecting and applying concepts, tools and practices to translate the concepts of strategy into actions. The program will be delivered through synchronous and asynchronous learning with self-paced engaging activities. An important part of this experience is that participants will be given immersive learning experience by applying the strategic planning framework and tools to their institutions using an activity workbook.
