Th e circular economy has been described as an economic system that exchanges the “end-of-life” concept with reducing\, reusing\, recycling and rec overing materials/resources in production\, distribution\, and consumption processes and procedures.\n\nIntegrating circularity in a company’s str ategy comprises instituting a long-term vision\, setting clear targets and assigning responsibilities for circularity. Transitioning toward a circul ar economy characterizes change that requires new ways of doing business i n the long-term.\n\nIntegrating circularity in business strategy is tough and difficult to attain for organizations as it involves impactful changes in core business processes and practices. While studies and research has focused on identifying key barriers\, little is known about the organizati onal attributes that can support businesses in integrating circularity in their strategies.\n\nThe objective of this course is to investigate the im plications of organizational managers and network interactions for the int egration of circularity in business strategy. A survey data from 627 SMEs (small- and medium-sized enterprises) in the Netherlands\, displays that m anagers who interpret circularity as an opportunity can have a positive di rect and indirect consequence on the integration of circularity in a compa ny’s strategy. The results furthermore underline the importance of circu lar network interactions for the assimilation of circularity in business s trategy.\n\nThis Xcelerate Training Institute course explores Strategy in a contemporary way of thinking\, focusing on value preservation\, where ma terials from a discarded product maintain their original quality and achie ving growth without consuming resources. Change in core business processes \, such as the value proposition and forward supply chain activities\, is thus necessary in order to integrate circularity in business strategy.\n\n However\, research has shown that making such impactful modifications is d ifficult to achieve for many businesses. The adoption of long-term strateg ic methods toward circularity was limited.  This is likely caused by the barrier companies experience in the integration of circularity.\n\nThese i nvolve cultural barriers\, such as hesitant company culture\, regulatory b arriers\, including a lacking global consensus\, technical barriers\, for example\, a requirement for new technologies\, and market barriers\, such as high upfront investment costs.\n\nLearning Objectives\n\n Learn how to induce synergy into their respective organizations by encouraging network ing\, collaboration\, participation and ultimately organizational synergy via the accumulation of strategic capital and acumen\n Discover how to co llate strategic acumen in relation to ascertaining best-case scenarios to implement an optimal strategy for your organization\n Compile situation-s pecific business cases for the subsequent implementation of strategic plan s\n Understand your legal obligations in terms of strategic planning\, im plementation and execution\n Learn how to enforce provisions encapsulated in strategic plans in the event of non-compliance\n Recognize how to spo t common errors when reviewing strategic plans\n Take preventative and pr otective control measures to ensure maximum participation in strategic pla nning processes for your organization\n\nTraining Methodology\n\nThis Stra tegy Masterclass will comprise the following training methods:\n\n Lectur es\n Seminars &\;
