Facilitating Strategic Change

Our Facilitating Strategic Change (FSC) program helps build the capability to design and drive transformational change across an organization, its value-chains or functions

About the Program

The demands of business-as-usual overshadows strategic thinking impacting the organization’s ability to balance adding value to the present with creating value for the future. This makes it imperative for leaders to learn a structured approach to transform the quality of strategic thinking and planning within the organization.

The Facilitating Strategic Change program helps build the capability to design and drive transformational change across an organization, its value-chains or functions. The program focuses on new perspectives, frameworks and tools to engage stakeholder systems in co-creating and driving transformation.

The Technology of Participation (ToP) facilitation approaches included in this program were pioneered by the Institute of Cultural Affairs, an international network focused on the development and application of social innovation methods for community and organizational development around the world.

Learning Outcomes
