Breakthrough Blueprint
Unite creativity and strategy to create breakthroughs
CSCHOOL DIFFERENCE
Every CSCHOOL program is a personalised engagement between you and the instructor so that you can confidently get the result that you want.
Choosing what to do—and what not to do—is the definition of strategy. Creativity is perceiving and solving a unique problem. In this course, you’ll create and take action on a strategy for your business breakthrough. You’ll work one-on-one with us and follow steps that are possibility-focused. By combining creativity and strategy, you will both analyse your business as it is and imagine how it could be.
