The idea behind the conference

In an era of digital transformation and work automation, an organization's ability to respond to change is a key success factor.

Companies that cling to a strategy once chosen will not survive very long in the market. In the new model, the division between strategy and tactics is blurred. Therefore, a completely new approach is needed in an environment of constant change. What is an agile strategy? How to implement a new approach to strategy in an organization?

Problem

Does a long-term business strategy still make sense in a changing, unpredictable world? How do you plan any action when every day brings new changes?

To this day, many organizations understand strategy as a long-term action plan - and this is a serious mistake! The advancing digital transformation, the transfer of business to the online sphere and the rapid economic and social changes caused by the pandemic have effectively verified this view. The traditional approach to strategy has simply stopped working! Planning a strategy for a whole year, two years or even three? The times when this was possible are long gone.
Leaders need a completely new approach to strategy that will allow them not only to react to market changes and random events, but also to efficiently navigate the digital reality. What is modern strategy all about? How to achieve even more with it?

Solution

Put your mind to the groundbreaking strategy approach of Chris Outram, a global expert with more than 30 years of experience, and act with confidence in uncertain times!

As a response to today's challenges, Chris Outram offers companies an agile approach to strategy, which combines tactics and strategy. It is agile that allows you to respond quickly to change and adapt to new conditions - including crises. This allows you to discover new and surprising growth opportunities for your company, and thus exploit various sources of market advantage. Don't wait for others to dictate the rules of the game - set new directions of development yourself and stay ahead of the competition!
In the digital world, the difference between planning and action has practically blurred. Discover the new strategic model that large multinational companies are already using!
