Overview

  • Facilitate with Clarity. Guide with Impact. Deliver Strategy That Gets Done.
  • Facilitating strategic planning is not about sticky notes or endless whiteboards—it’s about structure, clarity, and confident leadership. The StratDo® Strategic Planning Facilitators Course equips professionals with the skills, tools, and confidence to lead highly effective, outcome-driven strategic workshops using Rekon’s proven StratDo® methodology.
  • This two-day, hands-on course is designed for internal consultants, team leads, L&D professionals, and change agents who are tasked with driving strategy within their teams or organisations. Participants learn not just how to run workshops—but how to design them, manage complex group dynamics, and guide participants from high-level thinking to actionable outcomes.
  • At the heart of this program is Rekon’s spiral learning model. Participants repeatedly apply the StratDo® approach across increasingly complex simulations. Each cycle strengthens capability and confidence through real-time facilitation practice, structured reflection, and practical feedback.
  • You’ll leave this course with a complete facilitation toolkit, a strategic session plan ready to deliver, and a renewed confidence in your ability to lead strategic conversations that result in clarity, commitment, and execution.
