- complexity management
- problems and their identification
- How to generate new solutions and choose the most effective ones

The course consists of two classroom days. The common thread of the days will be the business game Asso Bank®.
Classrooms consist of 8 to 16 people, and participants will be divided into groups, each group taking on the role of a bank branch manager.
Management of the “digital” branch will take place by means of a PC or tablet available to each group. In addition to the business game, cases, role playing and other forms of active learning will be conducted through a training methodology that combines experience and theory.
All participants will be given a physical and digital handout of the course (accessible through Academy Stra-Le).
