Strategy Execution Training and Certification Program
The Strategy Execution Professional Certification program is offered by Strategy Management Group (SMG), with an optional joint certification from The George Washington University Center for Excellence in Public Leadership (GW CEPL). Led by experienced facilitating consultants, this program is designed to bridge the gap between strategic planning and effective implementation.
The certification focuses on five critical strategy execution imperatives, providing participants with practical tools and techniques to transform abstract goals into actionable strategies. Unlike traditional strategic planning courses, this program emphasizes hands-on application, equipping leaders, managers, and analysts with the skills to overcome common execution challenges.
The course content covers essential aspects of strategy execution, including leadership and governance, creating a performance culture, aligning and operationalizing strategy, project/portfolio management, and performance analysis and reporting. This comprehensive approach ensures participants gain the necessary skills to effectively implement organizational strategies and drive tangible results.

The end goal is to leave the client with observations, specific recommendations, and tools and techniques that can be applied to improve organization excellence, and to ensure that performance management becomes and remains a formal enterprise capability
