Business Process Design for Strategic Management
About this Course
Duration : 6 weeks (excluding orientation)
Unplanned events happen in all businesses — from communication breakdowns and financial shifts to tight turnaround times and employee disengagement.
The six-week Business Process Design for Strategic Management online short course, from the MIT Sloan School of Management, gives you access to the knowledge of thought leaders Nelson Repenning and Donald Kieffer. You’ll be introduced to Dynamic Work Design, a process improvement framework based on decades of industry practice and academic investigation. This unique methodology is based on improvement principles that enable successful integration with the existing culture, processes, and methods within an organization. The program explores the necessity of continuous change and the effectiveness of a dynamic approach to work design, while identifying opportunities for process improvement within your own business context.
This program is suited to business leaders who are looking to design and improve processes and formulate strategy that drives progress. It's similarly beneficial to managers who are interested in optimizing efficiency and facilitating problem-solving in their teams. Harnessing Dynamic Work Design principles, professionals will learn how to find solutions to issues and implement strategies for sustainable improvement in a range of industries. The course content is also relevant to Analysts, Consultants, and Specialists — especially those concerned with managing risk and change — as it provides insight into why certain improvement strategies fail. The approach delivers rapid results, ensuring little is needed in the way of overheads, training, or implementation, enabling feasible innovation for both small and large business structures. Essentially, anyone wanting to upskill themselves and improve in their role will find the concepts and methods covered useful.
Learn to improve business processes through Dynamic Work Design and earn an official digital certificate of completion from MIT Sloan.
This program also counts toward an MIT Sloan Executive Certificate, which you can earn upon completion of four programs where at least three of the four come from your chosen certificate track and at least one is completed in person. Find full details here.
