This GLOMACS Certification training seminar in Strategic Management in the Oil and Gas Business will address the critical management issues in oil and gas business that will affect future profitability and growth within a rapidly changing global energy market. It will enable managers in this business to achieve and sustain superior personal and team performance.

The structure of the oil and gas industries is going through a period of significant change. The outlook for oil and gas prices is problematic and subject to pressures from alternative energy sources.
