Executives of firms that have or will internationalize must possess a global mindset to face the inherent challenges of managing across borders. In this course, we investigate the challenges and opportunities of internationalization by answering the questions : if, why, when, where, and how? In this course, students will study both small and large firms, to appreciate the complexities of internationalization, and seek solutions to manage differences. The course concludes with a personal reflection on global mindset and how it can be developed (in self and others).
