With expanding customer choice, businesses have to work harder than ever to distinguish themselves from their competitors. A strategic plan is key, Dr. Monique Beedles explains at the Australian Businesswomen’s Network’s upcoming Masterclass webinar on Tuesday, 24 July at 10:30am AEST. At the webinar, business owner, strategy consultant and author Monique Beedles will explore what a strategic plan involves and how thinking strategically gives businesses direction, helps them achieve their objectives and enhances creativity.
Understanding what external factors impact business and planning around these can ensure business goals are met. During the Masterclass Beedles will provide clear action steps to achieve the best outcomes in your strategic plan. According to Monique Beedles, essential in developing a strategic plan is clarifying the business vision and how success will be measured on the basis of this vision.
“Often the measures are turnover, revenues, number of employees, which may in fact not be meaningful to you,” Beedles explains. “It’s important to have your own measures of success when you look at what you’re objectives are in your business.”
Through the live webinar format, Beedles will provide individualised feedback to business owners, providing practical advice on how to improve their business strategies.
