Module description
This module is focussed upon the challenges of ‘doing’ strategy in the real world and the Risk Based approach to decision making. It provides you with a ‘strategic sandbox’ to develop your applied strategic skillset by exposing you to a number of ‘tools of the trade’ available to the strategist.
By the end of this module you will have developed some of the skills necessary for strategic decision making in the contemporary world. Initial focus will be on the acquisition of strategic skills, the 'tools of the trade', which you will deploy during engaging problem solving throughout the module. Skills will be acquired in a building block approach allowing you to develop a keenly focussed range of applied skills which you draw upon to apply to specific issues and challenges. Learning will be reinforced with engaging and immersive exercises.
