MANAGEMT 7081 - Managing in a Global Context

This course will prepare you for a leadership role in the globalised world. Such a role requires skills and a mindset to deal with uncertainty and complexity. The course uses cutting-edge practices to provide you with a developmental stretch of self-exploration and experimentation. You will learn about the practical impact of diversity in cultural, political, legal and economic systems on human behaviour and its effect on business activities in both local and international contexts. The course will equip you with skills to devise and implement effective communication, collaboration and consultation strategies to engage, support and manage stakeholders of diverse backgrounds to achieve organisational outcomes. You will also study, compare and contrast strategies that organisations use to seize opportunities and manage challenges presented by the international scale of business operations. As a result, you will be able to analyse and interpret the process of internationalisation of an enterprise and contribute to decisions about the internationalisation of an organisation.
