Read moreWho’s it for?
Our business strategy course is specifically for the Senior Managers of businesses and organisations that are growing, or are looking to establish and implement plans for change and growth. Attendance with a peer from your organisation where possible is advised (multi-place booking incentives exist too).
The course is also very useful for Owner Managers keen on developing or realising business value potential.
What does it cover?
The course allows delegates to review their own organisation and its environment from different perspectives. Delegates concentrate on building strategy and culture, and examine how strategies in a business can successfully join together. It looks at the effects that these will have on people and teams as they take hold.
The programme allows delegates to reflect on their own organisations as they go. Working with a peer during the training course is useful, if not essential.
What will delegates be able to do differently?
- Implement strategy and change in line with organisational vision
- Make faster and better decisions and allow others to do the same
- Get to the truth of where their business is really at
- Maintain focus through accurately communicated vision, mission and values
- Understand risk and how others feel about it
- Take and communicate positive actions, risks and changes
- Look for competitive edge and the next big thing

Alison was very informative and helpful. I struggled when I first opened the work book as it seemed intimidating, but all of Alison's explanations were really easy to follow and made it easier to apply to my role.
The range of subjects and topics covered by the Impellus courses gave me the opportunity to consider new strategies to use and develop within my management role.
Having the opportunity to discuss each topic with other individuals from a range of industries and backgrounds helped to provide further context and allowed me to consider alternative
ways to approach and deal with both people and situations.
Thank you Impellus for the  positive experience.

I loved the interactive aspect of this course - from the workbook to the breakout rooms during the day. It was easily personalised & could be moulded to fit your particular business. Meaning that everybody involved will benefit & learn something from today's course.
Very informative and trainer (Alison) was very clear in her dialogue and helped the information to sink in with her different scenarios that she had experienced.
Very well presented- Mel really knew her stuff! It also helps that Mel is charismatic so the day flew by. Most enjoyable was that I could actually take away something of value- the adult ego state or as I like to call it- "Adulting". This will definitely be a conscious choice to make this a starting point for my work communications moving forwards so that it eventually becomes the norm for me.
