Course Overview

Has the COVID-19 pandemic put a halt to globalization? Are we witnessing a shift from free trade to more aggressive protectionism? What emerging trends and developments will impact your business, and what are the implications for your organization? These are crucial questions that will shape the future, with both positive and negative answers. This course aims to contextualize these issues in a new light.

Globalization has been a dominant force in shaping business practices in the 21st century, influencing everything from fundamental research to product development and post-sale support. The opening of markets and the rapid spread of information, knowledge, and capabilities have significantly impacted our understanding of business potential and operational methods.

However, recent trends suggest a potential reversal of the past 30-40 years of globalization, with increasing economic and political uncertainty and a move towards protectionism. Managers must now navigate these changes and understand their potential impacts on every decision and action.

This Globalisation and Deglobalisation training course will provide you with the insights needed to adapt to the evolving global landscape, helping you to grasp the implications of shifting global trends and to make informed decisions in a changing business environment.

This training course will feature:

  • Detailed analysis of the world economy and outlook to 2030
  • The process of change from a national to a global organisation
  • Strategic and operational challenges in developing a global organisation
  • Supply chain management challenges in a multi-cultural environment
  • Forecasting and planning in conditions of major uncertainty

  • Understand how and why the world economy is changing
  • Align strategic and operational objectives in response to global change
  • Balance technical efficiency and risk management in decisions
  • Identify the key factors for success in building a global organisation
  • Lead their teams in contributing to the process of globalisation

Training Methodology

The training course will be based on leading edge teaching/learning approaches to ensure maximum interaction and discussion of the subjects that are presented.
