This course samples the strategy literature and distinguishes economic and managerial (resource-based view) perspectives. Strategy issues encountered in transnational management are addressed in cases. Scenario planning is described. Trends and implications of globalization are explored (off-shoring, ‘rise of the rest’, resource use & climate change, BOP, Business Model change) and the ‘great recession’ is discussed from a long-wave perspective. Strategy implementation issues are addressed. Students develop strategies for an organization of their choice and evaluate those strategies using the ‘Scenariosto-Strategies’ approach in their term paper.
