Strategic Planning for Organizations
The TOURISM COMPANY has had the privilege to work with a range of public, private and non-governmental organizations across the country learning from each about the unique challenges they face and assisting them develop effective approaches and strategies to achieve tourism success. We use our considerable facilitation skills and planning to guide discussions and build consensus based on facts and objective analysis.
