Newcastle, NSW, Australia

Course Format: Classroom | E-learning | Virtual Class | Online | On-site | Blended | Self-paced

Course Description:

'' This short course aims to integrate theory with practice. It provides an introduction to key concepts in strategic marketing, and seeks participants to apply those concepts via group activities. The underlying premise of the course is that business strategy decisions require an analysis of markets and competition and an understanding of perceived customer value. That is, the organisation needs to be "market-driven".

Being market-driven requires an understanding of the value that customers seek, the capabilities that the organisation has to provide that value, and how the two might be aligned. Identifying the strategic alignment of customer value and organisational capabilities is a first step; managers then need to ensure that planning documents capture the associated activities and resources and, most importantly that they include measures to demonstrate the outcomes of strategic marketing.
