Detailed Presentation
Operational strategic management is what connects an organisation's vision to its delivery on the ground. It isn't simply about setting a direction, but about translating that direction into priorities, action plans, ways of organising work and systems for tracking results. This course gives you a clear understanding of the mechanisms that align strategic thinking with operational delivery. You'll discover how to structure objectives, organise resources, coordinate stakeholders, monitor performance and adjust decisions in line with the realities of the business. Designed for beginners, it offers an accessible, step-by-step and practical approach to developing a more structured view of management, improving the coherence of your actions and strengthening your day-to-day managerial effectiveness.
Overview
What this course covers
Strategic and operational management is an online UpSkills course in Leadership, Management & Change Management, organised into 17 modules, 17 lessons and 3h 50m of content. Each sequence pairs theory with hands-on practice so that what you learn transfers directly to a real professional setting.
By the end of this programme you will be able to understand the principles of operational strategic management, connect strategic vision with operational action, set clear objectives that can be put into practice and organise resources and responsibilities coherently. These skills are built up gradually across the course, consolidating the fundamentals before moving on to more advanced material.
The learning path opens with “Introduction to strategic and operational management” and closes with “FINAL QUIZ”, taking in “Strategic management: remit and central role”, “The stages of strategic management” and “Operational management: implementation and follow-up” along the way. The sequence is designed so each module builds on the one before it.
This course is aimed at learners at beginner level looking to build their skills in Leadership, Management & Change Management. It suits both individual upskilling and a company-led development plan, and needs no special software or equipment to follow.
The programme is led by Nawal EL FARJI, who brings 22 years of experience in the field; you learn at your own pace, with no fixed schedule, from desktop, tablet or mobile; an UpSkills certificate is issued once you complete the course.

Tres bonne formation, precise, concise et pratique pour une bonne gestion de l'entreprise. Je la recommande fortement.
Je remercie CCL et son partenaire UpSkills pour cette opportunité qui m'a permis d'avoir un regard complet dans le pilotage des activités, à travers la maitrise de la différence entre le Management stratégique et opérationnel, ainsi que comment les deux sont complémentaires. C'est vraiment une expérience que je recommande à tous sans hésitation.
