DEVELOPING BUSINESS ACUMEN – 3 days Overview Topics Covered “You have to combine instinct with good business acumen. You just can’t be creative, and you just can’t be analytical.” – Andrea Jung The term business acumen is simply the art of linking an insightful assessment of the external business world with an understanding of how money can be made. Then stakeholders develop key strategies to deliver desired results. This intelligence provides great scope to make good business judgments and quick decisions that are ultimately profitable for your organisation. No single aspect of managerial skill is more important. If the assessments and assumptions taken are inaccurate, your organisation’s strategic positioning is likely to be misplaced. The result is developing wrong capabilities, hiring unskilled people, entering into the wrong markets and focusing energy on non-profitable activities.

SUCCESSION PLANNING – 3 days Overview Topics Covered Succession management is critical to organisations’ success and creates an effective process for recognizing, developing, and retaining top leadership talent. It is important to note that strategic succession planning is not about talents the organization needs now; rather, it is projecting the talent, knowledge, skills and competencies needed for the future. Planning for both the foreseen and unexpected absences of people who hold key roles in an organization is a task which most employers often avoid or engage in only in an informal manner. Without concentrated effort on succession planning, a business that has been successful can quickly fail if one or more of its leaders are lost. When succession planning is carefully conducted and the plan periodically reviewed, extended and costly vacancies can be avoided. The Succession Planning Programme is designed to help organisations replicate leaders consistently.
