STRATEGIC PLANNING WORKSHOP

Overview
Is it a good idea to attend a strategic planning workshop?
Why You Might Want a Strategy Workshop
Let’s imagine that your business performance has dipped or you fear that it might because of recent changes in economic conditions, customer needs or competitors.
And you get approached by a firm of strategy consultants, marketing consultants or even your accountants and you get offered the opportunity to attend a strategic planning workshop, either at your offices or at a nearby hotel.
