Conducted by Strategist, Change agent, Proven contemporary Practitioner and Master Trainer Tilan Wijeyesekera, this full-day workshop will focus on Practical Strategic Planning techniques required to make organizations more attuned to the market place dynamics which in turn would assist organizations to effectively strategize towards greater success with strong implementation and control mechanisms. Anyone interested in attending the workshop could call 0774750450 for details. 
The workshop deals with real world issues and examples faced by Sri Lankan organizations which need to be addressed in a pro-active manner with a structured approach, leaving room for greater flexibility to move with the times while creating a planning and performance management culture to bring in greater results for organizations. 
Today’s market place is changing at a rapid pace with many formerly successful organizations falling by the way-side and new champions of business emerging through greater innovations, disruptions and differentiators which are making conventional organizations irrelevant to their stakeholders changing needs. A new breed of entrepreneurs in the form of start-ups are also immerging but suffer from lack of practical experience which keeps the success rate of ventures quite low. While the market attuned new age businesses strike a chord amongst their customers and challenge the conventional giants of business, while the others fail to make the mark. 
In the same vein, mid and large scale established businesses continue to do business in ‘the same way they’ve been doing business for years’ and expect to be successful in the future with the strategies that have worked for them in the past. However not realizing until it’s too late with the loss of significant market share and profitability that the market had shifted with changes in both macro as well as micro environments. This program will focus on how the established organizations, products, services and brands need to consolidate on their performance while having the flexibility of rethinking their business strategies to stay relevant in the market place. It would also focus on helping the new age business leaders and start-up heads to understand the requirement to plan AND implement more effectively whilst understanding the business and market place realities by not letting the emotions and passions overrun practicality. Disruption is great but it must not be too far ahead of the curve and must onboard its stakeholders at the correct time, in the correct manner for the correct results to emerge.
