The business environment of today presents problems which are “wicked” in nature. Wicked problems are ill-defined, have multiple stakeholders, have no clear and unambiguous solution or an exhaustive list of potential solutions, and each problem is essentially unique. In order to develop sustainable strategies in such an environment, the individual strategist would need to combine several skills – cognitive skills comprising analytical and divergent thinking, knowledge of theoretical concepts and frameworks, and awareness of issues and challenges in the business environment. This 3 day programme will take you through lecture sessions on strategy concepts and techniques, case discussions, and individual and group exercises. A problem solving learning approach will be adopted to focus on developing the cognitive skills required of a strategy consultant.
