What does this programme cover?

Operational planning often breaks down at department level: the strategic plan is approved, yet departments keep running on routine, activities have no named owner, staff time is booked twice and monthly meetings review activity instead of results. Deviations then surface only at year end. This Core Concept course equips department heads and planning and performance staff to cascade objectives into a departmental operational plan, schedule and resource activities, assign ownership, set operational KPIs and run monthly follow-up with variance analysis and corrective action. Participants produce an Annual Departmental Operational Plan and Follow-Up Dashboard for a case department.
