Service operations work that remains reactive or siloed limits influence, even when outcomes are strong.

The situation this course is for

Despite high performance, many facilities leaders find their input treated as execution-only. Without formalized service management frameworks, their strategic contributions get overlooked during leadership planning cycles.

Who this is for

Senior facilities or operations manager in a global services organization, responsible for cross-regional consistency and uptime, seeking greater decision influence without changing title.

Who this is not for

Entry-level facilities coordinators, contractors focused on single-site execution, or practitioners only interested in compliance checklists without strategic application.

What you walk away with

  • Deploy ISO 20000-aligned service documentation that reflects your current operational scope
  • Standardize incident and problem management workflows across geographies
  • Lead internal service improvement initiatives with documented methodology
  • Shape vendor SLA structures using ISO 20000 benchmarks
  • Present consistent service KPIs to leadership with audit-ready evidence
