Strategic Thinking @ OSU Cascades!
Strategic thinking is about seeing beyond the day to day. It means anticipating what’s ahead, making sense of complexity, and aligning decisions with long term goals. In this session, participants will strengthen their ability to connect vision with execution, move from reactive to intentional thinking, and focus energy where it matters most.
Through practical frameworks and real world examples, you’ll learn how to prioritize effectively, evaluate tradeoffs, and think critically about how to allocate time, talent, and resources for maximum impact. This session is designed to help you lead with clarity and purpose in an ever-changing environment.
