Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives: The objective of this course is to introduce the key concepts, tools, and principles of strategy formulation and competitive analysis. It is concerned with managerial decisions and actions that affect the performance and survival of business enterprises. The course is focused on the information, analyses, organizational processes, and skills and business judgment managers must use to devise strategies, position their businesses, define firm boundaries and maximize long-term profits in the face of uncertainty and competition. Strategic Management is an integrative and interdisciplinary course. It assumes a broad view of the environment that includes buyers, suppliers, competitors, technology, the economy, capital markets, government, and global forces and views the external environment as dynamic and characterized by uncertainty. In studying strategy, the course draws together and builds on all the ideas, concepts, and theories from your functional courses such as Accounting, Economics, Finance, Marketing, Organizational Behavior, and Statistics.
Course Content: Strategic Management deals with the methods that businesses and institutions must use in order to achieve their goals in their chosen business field. Strategy, management and planning are the main axes of this course. Strategy, planning and management issues, the current state of affairs (mission), the place where they want to be in the future (vision), and the working values they set for achieving this goal are related to institutional-business-operational strategies. In our course, these topics are explained in a phased and integrated way.
