Strategy in today’s dynamic operating context is tough. It requires extracting yourself from the operational and internal gravitational pull within professional service firms, to enable and challenge the choices and best bets you are placing to deliver on your vison and purpose. This workshop will explore the critical questions for leaders to ask including:

• Who are your material stakeholders now and how are you engaging with them?
• What does client success look like now and how are you delivering clients’ value?
