The Conversation for Action, a methodology developed by Dr. Fernando Flores highlights the importance of four fundamental pillars in every conversation that leads to an action: (i) what task should be carried out; (ii) how (with what quality) this specific task should be carried out; (ii) when the task should be completed; and (iv) what consequences will follow if the specific task is not delivered with the requested quality and within the expected timeframe. We leverage multiple strategies to help team leaders develop the necessary skills for key performance objective (KPI) development and an effective transmission of these tasks to their team members.
Derived from its roots in ancient Greek, the word strathgia meant the art of devising and conducting a military campaign. Strategic planning entered the business world as a high-bar task only for the bright minds at leadership positions. From aligning your values with those of your organization, to designing or re-defining goals and targets that support this alignment, our training on strategic planning helps you envision the process of goal development in the most effective manner and gives you the right tools to realize your stated vision.
