Course Objectives
The growth of China, India, Brazil and a host of other emerging economies have fundamentally changed how we think about global business. This course will help you understand how managers anticipate and respond to competitive pressures in a rapidly changing global marketplace. It will help you enhance your analytical, decision-making and implementation skills in an intense, highly competitive classroom environment. It will also help you understand and apply analytical tools used by managers and management consultants to exploit competitive opportunities and effectively respond to competitive threats.
This course will focus on significant international marketing, managerial and operational challenges and opportunities from the perspective of managers with decision-making responsibility in many parts of the world. We will pay significant attention to the impact the growth of the Chinese and Indian economies are having on the rest of the world. We will also explore the impact that Globalization and Sustainability are having on how people manage, work and live.
Leadership and this Course
Each of you must participate in a group case analysis competition during the semester. The goal of this case competition is to give you experience working together under tremendous pressure within a short time frame when the choice of strategies to pursue is not clear. Each of you will be "energetically" questioned by me
