Open Strategy Design and Networking Workshop

Saturday, September 20^th, 2014
9:00 – 16:00

The Strategy Practice Interest Group (IG) is pleased to offer an Open Strategy Design and Networking Workshop in Madrid, Spain, from 9:00am to 16:00 on September 20, 2014. The workshop is organized by the Strategy Practice Interest Group as part of the pre-conference program for the Strategic Management Society (SMS) Annual International Conference and is open to all conference registrants.

Regardless of the industry, practitioners of strategy face many parallel challenges while in the pursuit of competitiveness and insight. These challenges can be outwardly facing such as how to anticipate the changing preferences of customers or characterizing the threat of emerging competitors. They can be inwardly facing such as how to architect an organizational structure that supports a new strategy or building and retaining a strong pipeline of talent.

So, How Do You Really Know What You Know about Strategy is Good Enough?

Join us for an innovation session that blends strategy design and networking:

Strategy Design: Attendees will collaborate with mid to senior-level practitioners of strategy to engage in a highly interactive design challenge on a strategy topic.
Networking: Attendees will meet and network with other strategy practitioners facing similar challenges as well as with researchers from around the world who are exploring the cutting edge of strategic management.

The session is aimed at practitioners of strategy-related functional roles such as product development, strategic planning, strategic/market/financial analysis, insights, analytics and innovation.
