Programme Description

How does the management find a unique positioning, the “place” the organization should be in the industry? That is discovering a good strategy.

In your arena of tough business rivalry, how do you create an uncontested market space for your organization? That’s the only space where you can make competition irrelevant.

What discrete activities would your organization perform in creating, producing and delivering goods and services? All costs arise from value chain activities and all that makes you differentiated are created by them.

Those are the questions this programme answers.
