Strategy Made Awesomely Simple strategic planning course by John Spence

Strategy Made Awesomely Simple

Welcome to Strategy Made Awesomely Simple. Most strategy is more complicated than it needs to be. Large corporations have entire departments and elaborate frameworks devoted to it. Most organizations need a simpler approach. This course covers the tools I have used for more than 30 years to help organizations build and execute their strategy. You’ll learn the five levels of strategic thinking, my formula for a winning strategy, what makes an advantage difficult to copy, and how to build the accountability that gets a strategy executed. Only five to ten percent of companies with a good plan execute it well. This course is about being in that group. Includes 3 hours worth of videos, workshops and resources, and lifetime access.
