About the online masterclass
Strategy is one of the most important topics that you will cover in a management degree. A company’s strategy sets the destination of the firm and influences every decision made throughout the firm (and subsequently every other topic covered in a management degree).

If strategy is so important, why is it that so many firms get it wrong? In this masterclass, we will give a brief definition of strategy, we will then highlight one of the most popular practical applications of strategy with the ‘Playing to Win’ formulation, then discuss the life cycle of good strategy. Finally, we will discuss some practical tools for implementing and updating your strategy, including the exciting new strategy tool from Tangible Growth, presented by the founder and CEO himself.

During this free online Masterclass, Oliver W. Olson, Senior Lecturer Marketing & Strategy at MSM, and Juuso Hämäläinen, Founder and CEO Tangible Growth, will show how leaders and managers can increase their confidence about their firm’s strategy and ensure that all members of the organization are aligned and moving in the same strategic direction.

This masterclass is designed for leaders at all levels and sectors, for students, and for anyone who wants to learn how to design and execute a good strategy.

At the end of the Masterclass, you will also have the opportunity to ask your questions.

You will leave the online Masterclass with practical tools which you immediately can put into practice the next day.
