Objectives

  • Learners will acquire knowledge and understanding of social networking and the way citizens interact; how businesses market, promote, and distribute their products globally; and how civil society expresses its concerns that governments provide greater freedoms and accountability. Concurrently, companies, individuals, and even students can now engage in broad “mass” collaboration through digital, online technology for the development of new and innovative systems, products, and ideas. Both social networking and mass collaboration bring new power and influence to individuals across borders and transform the nature of their relationships with global organizations. Although globalization and technology continue to link nations, businesses, and individuals, these linkages also highlight the importance of understanding different cultures, national systems, and corporate management practices around the world. The world is now interconnected geographically, but also electronically and psychologically; as such, nearly all businesses have been touched in some way by globalization. Yet, as cultural, political, and economic differences persist, astute international managers must be in a position to adapt and adjust to the vagaries of different contexts and environments.

Outcomes

  • An awareness of and interest in how institutions—formal and informal ones—impact business decisions
  • An in-depth knowledge of analytical frameworks used in the screening of national markets (defining the key factors in the firm’s internationalization process by evaluating the international business environment, stressing particularly the economic and cultural dimensions)
  • An enhanced understanding of what determines the success and failure of companies around the globe. An ability to invoke different management theories (e.g., resource-based view, stakeholder theory, and institutional theory) to understand what is behind different firm performances around the world
  • An understanding of the “other side” of international business, namely, local firms that often compete and/or collaborate with foreign entrants, especially in emerging economies
  • An ability to recognize the tensions in adopting a global standardized action as opposed to a locally responsive action in international management and relate these to the overall corporate strategy of companies
