Most PMs never get invited into strategy conversations, not because they lack talent, but because they don’t know how to think and speak in strategy language.

In this live conversation, Dr. Marc Sniukas (strategic advisor to global CEOs, author of The Art of Opportunity, and creator of Better Strategy OS) joins Elizabeth Dworkin and Justin MacBale to break down the 4 layers of strategy,  and how project and program managers can finally earn a seat at the table.

You’ll learn:
-What strategy really is (hint: it’s not just a plan or a PowerPoint)
-The 4 layers of strategy: network, corporate, business, and functional
-How portfolio, program, and project management connect to those layers
-How to prioritize strategic challenges using “business survival” as your filter
-The difference between a project that’s off-track and a strategy that’s broken
-How PMs can move from task reporting to decision-enabling
-How to tie risks, trade-offs, and decisions back to business impact & survival
-Ways to cut through noise, eliminate non-strategic work, and focus on what matters
-Practical ways PMs can become strategic partners and build career visibility

If you’re a PM, program manager, or PMO leader who’s tired of being “just execution,” this session will show you exactly how to think, speak, and operate like a strategist,without needing a VP title.
