“The best management consultants are those who have a propensity for strategic thinking,” says Terina Allen in her Forbes article entitled This Is What It Takes To Become A Successful Management Consultant. This statement underlines the crucial importance of strategic thinking in a consulting role.

In an ever-changing world, the ability to provide strategic coaching is just as vital. Coaching guides, supports, steers and influences decision-makers in organizational change.

Having both capabilities—coaching and providing strategic support to your clients—will position you as a partner of choice. You will be able to inspire and orchestrate sustainable transformations within the companies and organizations you advise.

Our microprogram is intended for all professionals in a consulting role who want to hone their approach.

It will equip participants with the skills needed to combine strategic thinking with business coaching skills, creating a more holistic, strategic and human approach to change to generate positive impact within constantly evolving organizations.

Our hands-on, experiential learning approach will enable you to increase your influence and impact through practical, immersive exercises in a collaborative environment, consolidate the skills you have acquired, and measure their impact as part of a continuous development process.
