It serves as a stepping stone towards improving strategic management competence by initiating a regular strategic management process.
On the other hand, the Strategic Management System Implementation Workshop aims to change the management DNA of the organization and is responsible for the recurring process, embedding strategic planning as an integral part of the management system.
