Much has been written about the breathtaking changes that are redefining industries and forcing companies in almost every economic sector to re-examine their strategies. Many observers believe that a fundamental "paradigm shift" isunderway. The shift seems to be away from striving for mass production efficiencies, hierarchical organization, and bureaucratic control over large diversified firms and masses of employees and toward more flexible, focused, horizontal corporations that change continuously, solve problems spontaneously, and compete. In this course a dynamic approach to competitive analysis that is well suited to today's turbulent environment is developed. In exploring these emerging developments, this course integrates conceptual knowledge about Strategic Management with opportunities to develop practical managerial skills through the analysis of business cases and through participation in a business strategy computer simulation where concepts are applied to real-world organizations. Teamwork in strategic problem solving is emphasized in a setting that approximates the management teams typically charged with such tasks. Case Team debates inject a bit of competition. Student must have graduate standing to register for this course.
