Elevate Your Strategic Thinking for 2023 & Beyond

Develop a rapid understanding of the key foundational concepts of Strategy in Action (SiA) to elevate how you think, plan & act strategically in 2023.

Today, success doesn’t start with repeating the past.

It starts with a refreshed mindset, toolset and strategic focus fit for 2022. With the aim of either enabling ‘change ahead of change’ or ‘change in sync with change’ – especially disruptive change that risks core business activities and fails to realise emerging opportunities.

Generating an immediate understanding of this mindset, toolset, and strategic focus is what SiA FOUNDATIONS is all about.

Testimonials from Past Course Participants

As a FOUNDATIONS course, it both outlined the methodology and gave you enough learning to put it into practice. You leave with something you can actually use. Strategy in Action is a very practical solution to what can be a complex activity. It’s a great way to build confidence and develop some tools before tackling the challenges of developing a strategic plan.

- Andrew Tomaszewski, ANZCA

This course is extremely relevant in the current environment. Strategy in Action adds value and a new way of thinking.

— Keeyn Meredith, TasTAFE

Strategy in Action is a simple and intuitive model. It aids working in a reasoned and rationale way and provides a shared language for strategy" The Resilient Futures team genuinely wants to help people and organisations confront exponential change and the SiA framework is certainly a useful tool to achieve this goal.

- Sam Bonwick, Optometry Australia

The SiA model is very practical to understand and apply. It really challenges your mindset by making sure you constantly focus on the changing nature of conditions. For an organisation such as mine we need an impetus to be more responsive and future-focussed and SiA has given the reason and means to do so.

- Fiona Le Gassick, Education Leader

The SiA Community is a tremendous continuous learning tool that challenges how we create value businesses and communities. Strategy in Action is the way my firm makes decisions that impact our growth.

- Natalie Pryce, Led By Us LLC

SiA FOUNDATIONS is a very well structured and run course. The information about Strategy in Action from presenters and participants was valuable and I cannot wait to apply it to my organisation.

- Bill, Education Leader

 

What You’ll Learn

  • In the first module of SiA FOUNDATIONS, we'll set the context for the course, exploring how change has changed, the nature of disruption and begin exploring the course case study together.

  • In module two, we'll introduce the basic concepts, framework and principles of Strategy in Action (SiA) as a precursor to exploring how the framework supports you and your organisation to generate sustiainable value.

  • Continuing on from learnings from our last module, we'll build on our high-level walkthrough of the 5 elements of the framework and our initial look at Sustainable Value Generation, by exploring Conditions (including Disruptive Conditions Change) and Strategic Opportunity-Risk.

  • In the final module of this course, we'll explore Capability, Catalytic Action and becoming SiA ACTIVE, looking at the steps you can take immediately to activate Strategy in Action within your own context.

 How prepared are you for 2023 & beyond?

Many thought that 2022 would be a time for stability and recovery.

Many thought we had finally achieved a ‘COVID safe’ business as usual way of operating.

But instead, 2022 has seen an acceleration of fast-moving, complex, disruptive conditions.

Within these conditions, strategy and planning cannot revert to ‘process as normal’.

Moving forward in this complex change demands a new way of thinking, planning & acting,.

Strategy in Action (SiA) has benefits specifically designed for understanding and tackling the challenges of 2023 and beyond that other methods don’t.
