Telecom strategy fails most often at the join: trends are analysed, positions are chosen, but the KPIs, funding and risk responses never line up behind the choice. This demanding programme runs the full strategic arc for the converged telecom and media industry — identifying the key sources of strategic value, analysing technology, market and business-model trends, and staking out a sustainable ecosystem position. Participants assess the viability of strategic business models and financing options, design corporate and cross-functional KPIs that align, and pressure-test strategy against the industry’s key risks. Concepts are applied throughout to a realistic business simulation, and carried home through a post-programme implementation plan. The cohort finishes with a clear strategic vision they can defend.
