Why is this course important?

There is something special about starting a new year. With everyone back at work from their Christmas and New Year breaks and ready to start again, now is the perfect opportunity to get everyone focused and committed to the year that’s ahead of you all.

Taking time out to bring your team together for a short afternoon strategy session can help to realign everyone with what they have achieved over the past six months and what they still need to accomplish through to December.

The Setting Your Team’s Objectives and Goals for the Year Ahead session will help you clarify what your organisation needs your team to focus on and accomplish this year, as well as enable you as the team manager to craft a compelling vision for your team to reach this coming year. You'll learn how to use a balanced scorecard to identify your team’s priorities as well as how to run a team planning session to bring everybody on this journey with you.
