Some of the central questions for the course are:

  2. Why are some firms more successful than their competitors? Is this advantage sustainable or short-lived and why?
  3. What makes a particular industry attractive?
  4. What determines success in corporate diversification?
  5. What determines success or failure in international competition?

For each of the topics covered, you will get an overview of the current thinking and practice in the application of the concepts. By the end of the course you will be able to assess and successfully analyse ill-structured strategic problems by selecting and effectively applying the appropriate tools and frameworks. The class uses variety of teaching methods including lecturing, video, group work, games and presentations.
