Throughout the course we will outline key opportunities, challenges and risks of globalization. We will focus on global growth opportunities and market assessment techniques. We will investigate the impact of culture in strategic decisions and emphasize the need to balance local responsiveness and global synergies. We will analyse global competitiveness and we will look at ways in which firms achieve competitive advantage in a global marketplace. The most prominent digital trends will also be discussed, as well as the challenges that digitalization brings to the business models of international firms.
The approach used is both strategic and managerial. Strategic in that we will develop an appreciation of business strategies and understand the notion of competitive advantage. And managerial, in that we will look at global strategy tasks through the lenses of IB managers and executives.
The course uses a combination of interactive lectures, case discussions and group presentations. Attendance and participation in class discussions is critical to the success of the course and will determine your grade.LEARNING OUTCOMES:
The course aims to develop strategic thinking in a global business context. You will learn key concepts and tools used in developing global business strategies and in solving global business problems.By the end of the course students will be able to:
• Appreciate the idiosyncrasies involved in developing strategies for global markets.
• Acknowledge the complexities involved in taking strategic decisions in a global marketplace.
• Contextualize these decisions in light of internal capabilities and external environment.
• Employ key analytical tools and frameworks helpful to managers developing global strategies.
• Understand global competition and competitive advantage.
