How do you lead innovation when you're stuck in survival mode?

You know something needs to change, but no one seems to agree on what, when, or why?

This to Leading with Strategic Learning and Innovation, where strategy meets creativity, and planning gets a serious upgrade. No more guessing what’s around the corner or flying blind into change.

Instead, you’ll learn how to scan the horizon like a pro, spot external threats and opportunities, and figure out if your team is truly ready to roll with the punches.

You’ll map out the key players and build smart strategies to get them on board. Then, strap in for a fast-paced innovation sprint to generate ideas, pick the best ones, and prototype a solution faster than you can say “disruption.”

Wrap it all up by pitching your plan and getting real-time feedback to make sure your big idea doesn’t just sound good, but that it actually works.

Whether you're tackling a project, leading change, or just want to stay ahead of the curve, this course gives you the tools to lead with confidence, creativity, and a little flair. 💡🛠️

  • PESTLE Analysis

    PESTLE analysis identifies and evaluates how Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Legal, and Environmental factors impact business operations. The strategic planning framework helps business and project managers in the decision-making process.

  • SWOT Analysis

    After exploring the external landscape and identified trends and forces that could impact strategy, it's time to turn the lens inward. How prepared are we to seize those opportunities? Where might we be exposed to potential threats? Using the SWOT framework, we bridge the gap between external insights and internal action.

  • Stakeholder Mapping

    Stakeholder mapping is a powerful strategic tool that helps you identify who has influence, who will support or challenge the strategy, and who may be impacted by its implementation. More importantly, it guides you in planning how to engage each group effectively.

  • SCAMPER

    Get creative with solutions. Apply the SCAMPER framework, a powerful innovation tool that helps you generate new ideas by encouraging you to think differently about existing products, services, or strategies. SCAMPER stands for Substitute, Combine, Adapt, Modify, Put to another use, Eliminate, and Reverse - each prompting you to explore creative possibilities for improvement.

  • Pitch It!

    Prepare your pitch by clearly defining the customer service challenge , describing your innovative solution , and explaining how it works. Identify the stakeholders involved and their impact, outline a simple implementation plan, and define what success looks like.

Important stuff you may not otherwise experience in training

  • A Real Workbook

    Great leaders don’t just speak — they reflect, write, and rethink. Our visual decks are a treat to your eyes, and our workbook challenges your mind and muscle memory. As they say, the best ideas start with a blank page. Ours just happens to have some helpful prompts.

  • Expert Facilitation

    Our approach is all about facilitating learning experiences that don’t just inform, but inspire. We blend solid instructional design with real-world relevance, spicing things up with content tailored to the client’s unique industry, challenges, and goals. Think of it as training that doesn’t just talk at learners, but talks to them, using scenarios, language, and examples they actually recognize from their jobs.

  • Experiential Learning

    Lectures lose people. Experiences move them. You'll move yourself and your whole team forward together. Theory tells you what leadership should look like. Experiential learning shows you what it feels like.
