Syllabus

You will come away from this course with the foundational knowledge of what it takes to be a “Global Ready Leader” and will be able to use key findings about the workings of globalization to make more informed decisions in a business context:

  • You will be able to understand the practical complexities of what globalization is and how it affects the business environment regardless of its economic, political or social situation.
  • You will be able to articulate how global challenges are becoming increasingly complex by gaining insights from executives at different multinational corporations.
  • You will be able to conceptualize the differences in global business orientations and apply them in specific situations (i.e., multinational, global, glocal) using academic frameworks.
  • You will be able to explain how regulations and geopolitical forces shape global business environments and create both tensions and opportunities in the context of global business.
  • You will be able to articulate how the global environment is changing and forcing companies to develop sustainability practices based on creating economic value by creating societal value.
  • You will appreciate how global supply chains are the response to the increasing integration of international markets as firms try to remain competitive.
