NOVO
THE STRATEGIC AND ORGANISATIONAL CONSEQUENCES OF GLOBAL TRANSFORMATION docente: IVO Zander
Apresentação
docente Ivo Zander is the Anders Wall Professor of Entrepreneurship at the Department of Business Studies, Uppsala University. Educated at the Harvard Business School, Stanford University and Macquarie Graduate School of Management, Professor Zander holds a PhD from the Stockholm School of Economics. He has conducted extensive research on the dynamics of regional agglomerations and technological renewal of multinational corporations. His current research interests include the organisational dynamics of start-up firms, corporate entrepreneurship, and the entrepreneurial dynamics and consequences of accelerated internationalisation. He teaches entrepreneurship and various aspects of growing and managing the international firm, including foreign market entry and innovation in the multinational corporation.
For several decades, globalisation has transformed the rules of international competition, favoring those companies that have been able to expand and integrate operations across North America, Europe, and Japan. In the 21st century, rapid change in countries such as China, India, and Brazil and the associated entry of new competitors into the global economy suggest the need for renewed change and adaptation. The strategic and organisational challenges are daunting, as much of what has been learnt over the past decades will be of limited help in the years ahead. Those companies that recognize that change is under way and start formulating explicit responses and strategies to deal with the new global environment are also those most likely to succeed and survive over the years to come. Such responses and strategies must then anticipate and ultimately overcome rigid managerial mindsets, organisational inertia, and risk-constraining institutional expectations. The purpose of this seminar is to outline ongoing trends in the global economy, and to uncover potential and necessary responses among firms with ambitions to survive and grow in international markets.
