Whether financial collapse, public health emergencies, infrastructure failure, or geopolitical tension, business leaders across all industries face a variety of risks that can quickly evolve into crises. Using recent events in both the United Kingdom and continental Europe as case studies, students in this course will sharpen their skills to manage effectively through a wide variety of challenging business situations. This course includes two pre-departure lectures (accessible remotely), with a week-long travel component in London, United Kingdom (Saturday, July 20—Friday, July 26, 2024). Combining interactive seminars, guest lectures, and site visits to corporate and/or governmental organizations, students will depart with in-depth knowledge and practical leadership skills.
