Course Catalog Description:
This course focuses on the competitive strategy of the firm, examining how firms achieve and maintain superior profitability relative to their competitors in the long run, and the firm's role in building a more just and sustainable world. Starting from overall industry analysis, we cover how firms position themselves to succeed in various competitive contexts based on their resources and capabilities. We then analyze how firms innovate and adapt their capabilities over time, especially in the digital age. We extend our analysis to the scope choices of the firm and discuss how firms can successfully compete across multiple countries and businesses. Throughout the course, case discussions examine and simulate the process through which strategic decisions are made and carried out. Students are placed in the role of decision-makers and frequently asked to analyze the key choices they must make to define, reinforce, and successfully implement the firm's strategy. prereq: MBA or Mgmt Sci MBA student
Class Notes:
Full-time MBA students only
Class Description:
This course is designed to provide an integrated, top management viewpoint for business students. It will frame the forthcoming functional courses in the MBA curriculum by providing a "total" business perspective. The object of the course is to help develop analytic skills in the identification of key issues and in the formulation of appropriate strategies for complex business situations. The course will familiarize students with the theories, concepts, and techniques of strategic management using a combination of readings, case-discussions, and videos. Student progress will be assessed through class participation, in-class exams, and a group project comparing the strategies of two competing firms.
