- to provide students with a broad and critical understanding of the key issues and concepts in strategy and international strategy
- to stimulate both appreciation and critical consideration of current theory and research on international strategy
- to build skillsets related to strategy and international strategy, particularly analysis, decision-making and implementation.
- to allow students to reflect on their own experience, extrapolate and develop better strategy skills
- to prepare students for future roles in which they need to work with individuals and groups in organizations
As a module featuring in an advanced degree program, International Strategy focuses on the application of strategy essentials to international contexts in order to produce a refined and improved understanding of strategy in the real world. The course thus centers on in-class research and application exercises using real case studies sampled from a range of international and industry contexts. These exercises serve the purpose of developing strategy analysis and development skills, while also advancing and embedding learning. The exercises are also explicitly designed to improve skills and ensure strong performance on the final case simulation exercise. Participation in these exercises is thus mandatory and will be monitored. If you miss an exercise, you should send an explanation prior to the class, with the assistant in CC. Students are assigned to mixed groups for case work. Switching of groups is not permitted. All groups will need to prepare presentations during each session – presenting groups will be picked at random.
