Lehrinhalte (*)Utilizing a teaching approach that mixes cases and class discussions, students will learn key concepts and frameworks used in crafting and implement global strategy. The reading will give you a broad picture of what global strategy is all about. Furthermore, this course will provide the students with the opportunity to sharpen the written and oral presentation competencies.

The course contains two regular case teaching sessions and three competitive case sessions.
Preparatory questions will be assigned along with all teaching case sessions. Students are expected to analyze the case within their working group before coming to class and to prepare a five slide Power Point presentation summarizing their key findings. The slides form the basis for the student assessment, as well as the discussion of the cases in the class.

In each of three competitive case sessions, two groups (thus, competing session) will be asked to present their case analysis and strategic recommendation for the case at hand. Student will also need to provide a written case analysis before the presentation, which will be made public to the course for comments and critique. Non-presenting students will be asked to provide a question to the presentation prior the session which will form the basis for the participation mark.
