Despite the continuing hostilities in the Middle East, especially in Beirut, Lebanon, Dr Fawaz Hamidi successfully conducted two Continuing Professional Development (CPD) sessions for CMAs. The programmes were Certified Business Strategist (CBS) (2 days) and Certified Strategy Auditor (CSA) (3 days) starting 18 May 2026. There were 21 participants in each program.
The Certified Business Strategist (CBS) certification equips professionals with structured strategic thinking capabilities to analyse environments, design competitive strategies, align organizational resources, and drive sustainable performance. The program bridges theory and practice through applied frameworks and real-world applications.
The Certified Strategy Auditor (CSA) is an advanced professional certification designed for auditors and governance professionals who aim to evaluate strategy quality, coherence, execution readiness, and long-term value creation. The program introduces a structured methodology for independent strategy assessment.
The CPD programs were organised by Headway HBSS.
