Overview
In the Geopolitics, Globalization and Business Strategy Summer School Program at HEC Paris, participants will explore how geopolitics can help decision-makers broaden horizons and enrich their strategies by integrating in their thinking global political and macroeconomic issues.
Key facts
- What seemed to be solid assumptions about how the world worked and how stable it was are now continuously challenged by events – predictable and unpredictable –that can unfold very quickly.
- Perhaps even more crucially, geopolitics is not only a dimension of global risk but also a channel of contagion that can transform a sovereign or a liquidity crisis for instance into a worldwide, systemic failure of the international system. Some observers even wonder whether globalization, as a whole, may not come under challenge.
- The real issue lies in drawing operational implications from geopolitical analysis for businesses and decision-makers. Business executives can become easily obsessed with their inboxes, and be tempted to micromanage, isolate issues and be excessively backward-looking in their analyses as a result.
Programme Structure
The courses will enable you to:
- Understand the strategic landscape in which decisions are made
- Assess business risks and opportunities entailed by geopolitical dynamics
- Monitor changes in the international landscape, including the likelihood of low-probability and high-impact events (black swans)
- Integrate geopolitical analysis in the firm’s broader international and risk-mitigation strategies
- Develop a long-term, consistent strategy and vision, beyond mere day-to-day tactics
