Strategic Planning & Strategic Thinking | Business Strategy (Udemy.com)

There was a lot of repetition. I understand some of that is inevitable in a course, but with this course being so short, it got a little grating. There was also quite a few AI slop images used throughout, and whenever those appeared I had a hard time focusing on anything other than how awful they looked.

Strategic Thinking (berpikir strategis) adalah cara berpikir tentang masa depan organisasi/bisnis, termasuk bagaimana memahami kondisi bisnis, peluang, tantangan, dan arah yang ingin dicapai. Sedangkan Strategic Planning (perencanaan strategis) adalah proses mengubah pemikiran tersebut menjadi rencana yang terstruktur, memiliki arah, sumber daya, tujuan, dan tindakan nyata. Sederhananya: Strategic Thinking = Memikirkan "kita mau ke mana?" Strategic Planning = Menentukan "bagaimana kita sampai ke sana?" Strategic planning bukan sekadar membuat rencana jangka panjang. Intinya adalah membuat keputusan yang tepat saat ini untuk mencapai keberhasilan di masa depan. Perencanaan strategis mencakup: Menentukan arah organisasi; Menentukan tujuan; Mengalokasikan sumber daya; Menentukan langkah-langkah yang harus dilakukan; Memastikan setiap tindakan mengarah pada tujuan yang sama. Manfaat strategic planning Clarity: Memberikan arah dan tujuan yang jelas serta mengurangi ketidakpastian Efficiency: Mengoptimalkan penggunaan waktu, biaya, dan sumber daya Competitive Advantage: Membantu organisasi mengantisipasi perubahan dan peluang sehingga lebih unggul Alignment: Memastikan seluruh fungsi, proyek, dan usaha organisasi bergerak menuju tujuan yang sama 5 komponen utama strategic plan : 1. Vision Statement Pertanyaan utama: "Kita ingin menjadi apa/berada di mana?" => Vision menggambarkan kondisi atau posisi yang ingin dicapai di masa depan. 2. Mission Statement Pertanyaan utama: "Apa yang kita lakukan dan mengapa kita melakukannya?" => Mission menjelaskan fungsi, peran, dan alasan keberadaan organisasi. 3. Goals & Objectives Pertanyaan utama: "Hasil spesifik apa yang harus dicapai untuk mewujudkan vision?" => Goals/objectives mengubah visi yang masih umum menjadi target yang lebih konkret dan terukur. 4. Strategies Pertanyaan utama: "Bagaimana cara mencapai objectives?" => Strategy merupakan pendekatan atau metode utama yang digunakan untuk mencapai tujuan. 5. Action Plans Pertanyaan utama: "Apa langkah konkret yang harus dilakukan?" => Action plan menerjemahkan strategi menjadi aktivitas nyata, termasuk langkah, waktu, dan sumber daya yang diperlukan

Great Course! It helps a lot in many ways. I Learned To Transform Strategic Thoughts Into Actionable Plans With a Strategic Plan Template. Acquire Skills To Analyze And Interpret Complex Business Environments Effectively.

"Beautifully designed, but strictly a superficial glossary." It is a decent vocabulary introduction for absolute beginners, but lacks the analytical depth and actionable methodologies required for practical business decision-making.

Mengikuti kursus Strategic Planning dan Strategic Thinking memberikan pengalaman transformatif. Anda akan diajak mengubah kebiasaan reaktif menjadi proaktif. Pelatihan ini membedah cara merumuskan visi jangka panjang, menganalisis tantangan dengan kerangka kerja komprehensif (seperti SWOT dan PESTEL), serta mengeksekusi prioritas secara sistematis demi hasil yang berdampak.

The course had very useful information. It will definitely help me in my future work. I would have liked to have been able to put the skills taught in the lessons to the test by actually going through a case study where we are required to come up with the strategic plan & work through the template on our own before getting the answers in the course content. Maybe through an interactive lesson with quizzes or something.

Clear and well-structured course with information presented in a very easy-to-follow way. The practical examples really helped solidify the concepts, and the templates and resources provided are highly useful and directly applicable in day-to-day work.

Strategy as described by the instructor said it very simple: it is about making clear choices on where to compete and how to win. It focuses on aligning resources and actions to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage.

The instructor was highly engaging, and his passion for the subject matter was truly inspiring. He used clear, relatable real‑world examples that made the concepts easy to understand and apply. Great course.

It is trully enlighting. I knew about the concept of strategic planning, doing it every day at work and also in my personal life but, this gentleman as put some words and definitions which converts an abstract theory to me into a realistic and feasible practice.. loved it!
