Build capability in root cause analysis across the team handling indicators and strategic plan.
Designing Strategies to Link Performance Indicators to the Strategic Plan
Move indicators and strategic plan from general awareness to a repeatable, reviewable practice.
Course Overview
Improvement in indicators and strategic plan that is not measured tends to be reversed quietly. The cost of poor quality in strategic plan is rarely visible in any single budget line. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting the quality and productivity management discipline and under-invest in testing it. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in indicators and strategic plan that were visible long before the incident. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for this aspect of quality and productivity management. The programme takes participants through strategic plan end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about indicators and strategic plan. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of strategic plan rather than to abstract argument. The programme ends where implementation begins, with the wider quality and productivity management agenda broken into steps someone can start on Monday.
