Welcome to the Preparing Business Plan Implementation course! This is course 3 of the Business Planning Series.

As a manager, you'll probably need to create business plans from time to time. For example, you may want to set out the strategies your department will follow for the next 12 months.

Or you might need to develop a plan for a new product, service, or process. Although creating a successful business plan is a significant achievement, implementing it effectively is not without its challenges.

Implementing a business plan requires the development of action plans. It also involves assigning responsibility for carrying out the necessary actions to individual employees and departments.

You should review and evaluate the results achieved on an ongoing basis. If things go wrong and you don't get the expected results, it's important to be able to modify your plans and take corrective action to get back on track.

In this course, you'll learn how to coordinate and manage all implementation-related activities in an effective way. You'll discover how to develop action plans to help you implement your strategies and ideas.

And you'll find out how to ensure your implementation efforts can be supported in your organization. You'll also determine how to create a reporting system to help you monitor progress, how to control and modify your action plans, and how to assess the resulting outcomes.

After taking this course, you should be in a better position to implement your business plans effectively. This can help you achieve your own goals as a manager – as well as support your organization's strategic objectives.
