| Course content and
structure |
|
The aim of the Strategy Development course is to provide you
with both a strong theoretical understanding and a practical grasp
of strategy development and execution. In this course, you will
apply the theoretical insights to challenging case studies and
in-class group exercises that serve to create a thorough foundation
for dealing with strategic management.
The course intends to extend your knowledge to help you define
and assess the quality of a firm’s competitive strategy. Nurturing
a sound understanding of the fundamental principles and concepts
inherent to strategic management should help you formulate,
evaluate and implement strategies which help firms gain competitive
advantage. The course emphasizes practical application of theory.
This is sought through active utilization of theoretical frameworks
to solve real world company issues.
