Overview   

Every organisation needs leaders who know where they want to take the business to because a business that has no vision is a business that is destined to fail!  

Strategic planning is a vital role of every business leader. It is the process through which business leaders map out the organisation's future through a common vision. Depending on this vision, specific goals and objectives are put in place and these must then be followed by every member of the organisation as they aim to achieve a common purpose for the organisation.

Join us on 9 February 2022 from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. for a discussion on this process that is vital for business success.
