To address this misalignment in organizational strategy, BMGI is hosting two one-day workshops on March 12 and 13 in San Jose, CA.

Workshop: Strategic Thinking: The Thinking Behind the PlanningLeaders often jump right into strategic planning without doing the thinking that must come first. This one-day workshop is designed to help leaders learn what it means to be a strategic thinker and how they can create insights--new and unique ways of looking at their business, customers and competitive environment--before they start the formal planning. Date: Wednesday, March 12Location: San Jose MarriottPrice: $399 per attendee, group discounts availableLearn more: www.bmgi.com/training/strategic-thinking

Workshop: Strategic Planning: Connecting Strategy Creation with Strategy ExecutionThis one-day workshop focuses on Hoshin Planning--a time-tested strategic planning process that links a company's major strategy objectives with the specific resources and action plans needed to make them happen. In the end, the entire company becomes involved in everything from the generation of new ideas to a pragmatic and executable approach to bringing those ideas to life.Date: Thursday, March 13Location: San Jose MarriottPrice: $399 per attendee, group discounts availableLearn more: www.bmgi.com/training/strategic-planning
