This instructor-led, live training in Botswana (online or onsite) is aimed at beginner-level / intermediate-level / advanced-level individuals who wish to integrate Strategic Agility and Quality Assurance, ensuring that quality becomes a catalyst for strategy rather than a hurdle, and that agility is grounded in repeatable, high-quality processes.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the concept of strategic agility.
• Connect strategy with operational activities.
