In this course, you explore the important role vision plays in developing organizational strategy, maintaining competitive resilience, and in helping organizations survive and thrive through disruption. You will learn about and analyze the three main components of a vision: raison d'être, strategic differentiation, and values. First, you will understand what a vision framework is, examine its four organizational elements, and discover how to use it to integrate a vision throughout an organization. Then, you discover the value of having a personal vision through real-life leader stories. To meet the challenges of disruption, leaders need to be un-disruptable and have a vision, and align that vision with that of their organization. In this course, you will learn how to utilize the innovative and strategic practices successful leaders embrace in order to steer your own organization towards success.
