Description: It is one thing to read studies about how global trade has transformed how organizations develop products, structure their operations, and allocate their resources. It is quite another to learn about the impact directly from leaders themselves. In this course, you’ll hear in-depth narratives on how complex global dynamics re-shaped strategy and investment from c-suite executives at top multinationals like Blackstone, Audi, Estée Lauder, Colgate-Palmolive, and the World Bank Group. In the process, you’ll find the best practices to reacting to globalization in everything from pricing to logistics.
