Elevate Your Career With More Strategic Thinking

What separates people in the business world is the strategic level at which they think. Generally, strategic-level thinking is broader, more creative, and big-picture, and more senior people think at that level. This course will help you see the level of your thinking when looking at many scenarios and also improve it, no matter what level you are at in your organization. If you can think more like your boss, the CEO, the board, the owner, or the partners, you will be ahead. This course is not about flow charts and theory, but includes over 25 practical, real-life examples.

• What is higher level strategic thinking?
• How do you think at a higher strategic level?
• What is your current thinking level?

The course is taught using over 25 short scenarios to improve your thinking in the areas of business, systems, technology, tax, compensation, organization, international business, risk management, and more.
