Content
Strategic Focus Areas: Global Mindset & Sustainability
The course International Strategic Management covers all three dimensions of strategic management (process, content and context) and deals with a wide range of issues on each dimension.
As the course aims to go beyond understanding and applying basic tools and concepts, students are challenged to understand more complex phenomena and to critically reflect upon them. This is reinforced by not shielding students from the uncertainties, inconsistencies and disputes within the field of strategic management.
This course contributes to the following SDG’s: 1, 8, 9 & 12.
