Unit 5. Strategically agile organisations: Building an adaptive culture and capability

We look at how strategic managers evaluate, select and manage strategic opportunities and issues using principles designed to sustain the organisation over the long term. We then identify skills and processes which enable strategic managers to scan and understand the environment so as to identify which emerging issues they need to respond to. Using techniques like strategic gap analysis, strategic assumption definition and the principles of agile and great organisations, we will develop our understanding of the capabilities that agile strategic organisations possess and nurture.
