Corporate strategy asks the question, ‘In what industries should a firm compete?’ These are the objectives and policies that collectively determine how a business positions itself to increase its returns and create economic value for its owners and stakeholders. In this course, students learn analytical techniques for diagnosing the industrial landscape of a business, a firm’s overall portfolio, and identifying and analyzing specific business options. These concepts and frameworks will help you to learn to put structure on complex and unstructured problems in corporate strategy to provide a solid foundation for managerial decision making.
