It is often much easier to attend to operational tasks, meeting short term goals than trying to think and plan strategically, setting long term goals, especially if you are a solo worker.
This one-day course will provide you with appropriate tools and techniques to help you set a direction and to think and work more strategically.
Benefits of attending
The day will outline how to create a strategic plan for your service and how to execute this plan, including overcoming barriers. It focuses on how to work more efficiently and productively as an individual and within a team.
By the end of the event participants will have:
- identified their work values
- gained an understanding of how these need to inform decisions and strategic planning
- created a vision and mission for their service
- set result-driven and purposeful goals to achieve their vision and mission
- discovered a strategic time management model
- overcome barriers to delegation
Who should attend?
Middle to senior managers who are solo workers; and/those who are deputising or leading a team.
Special notes: participants are asked to bring work objectives/goals and their work diaries.
