    Course Description:

    This course covers the economic development and market structure of various emerging economies. The course is designed to cover many of the most important emerging markets in the world. Asia, especially China and India, receives a strong focus given its size and pivotal role in the world economy. However, the markets of Latin America, Africa, Eastern Europe and the Middle East all receive coverage. Emerging markets are now responsible for the lion's share of world GDP growth. Success in them is critical for the strategies of multinational firms. Similarly, they are an important part of most investment portfolios. The course attempts to answer a number of important questions about these markets: What are the key challenges facing emerging markets today? What are the key drivers for economic growth in different countries? What is their future potential and how are they likely to evolve over the next few decades? How will demographic trends impact the attractiveness and growth prospects of these markets? What role does the government, especially the state-owned sector, play in their economies? More generally, how does politics impact markets, especially for foreign firms operating there? How do financial markets and corporate governance vary by country and what impact do they have on firm strategies? Why are conglomerates more common in emerging markets and what role do they play? How do consumer behavior and product markets vary by income and region?

  • ECON-GB.2355Behavioral Economics: Decisions and Strategies (3)
    Course Description:

    Behavioral economics is an emerging subfield that integrates insights from psychology into economic models of behavior. This MBA elective course is intended to inform managers analysts and consultants of the psychological processes and biases underlying our decision making with an emphasis on how to incorporate such insights into business strategies. Successful business strategies depend on a thorough understanding of how consumers and producers make decisions. However traditional models which are founded on the assumption of perfect rationality have serious limitations. Rather than making decisions in the manner predicted by these models consumers and producers often use myriad rules and processes that result in sometimes counterintuitive decisions. For instance consumers have an exaggerated tendency to select compromise or middle options when making choices overpay for warranties buy products they do not use and do not buy products that they later wish they had. Similarly producers overpay for acquisitions persist in investing in losing projects hire the wrong people and design products that result in consumer dissatisfaction. The fact many of these decision errors and biases are systematic has powerful business implications because as this course illustrates it is possible to address them. This course will provide a broad overview of important results from behavioral economics that clarify how consumers and producers really make decisions and investigate how these results can be leveraged to design original and more effective business strategies.

  • FINC-GB.2375Managing Climate, Cyber, Geopolitical, and Financial Risk (3)
    Course Description:

    Businesses and governments now face a growing and immediate array of nonfinancial risks, including climate-related, cyber and operational, and geopolitical risks. Precisely because these critical risks are hard to measure and analyze, firms are putting new resources – people and money– to work to anticipate, manage and mitigate them. To address cybersecurity risks, for example, JP Morgan alone has 3000 employees and spends $600 million annually. Firms are only starting to grapple with existential climate-related risks. And startups are mushrooming to provide assessments to businesses. This course will study these risks alongside financial risks. It will outline frameworks for measuring, assessing and analyzing them, and for actions needed to meet them. We will examine case studies of climate, cyber and geopolitical risks, including from current events. Finally, we will study whether and how the information in financial markets can both inform the assessment of these risks and potentially provide tools to transfer, insure against or hedge them.

    This is a class about valuation. It starts by laying the foundations of value and pricing, but the bulk of the class is spent on applications, rather than theory.

It is about valuing individual assets, as well as portfolios, and it looks at valuation from every conceivable perspective, as an investor, a trader, a business owner, or a manager. It is about valuation in all its many forms and by the end of this class, you should be able to value just about anything that has a value and price just about everything else.

    This course supports your success as an effective communicator, innovator and business leader in an age that demands immediacy, authenticity, and transparency. Translating your ideas into successful initiatives requires a communication discipline with the capacity to connect with multiple audiences from diverse cultural, intellectual and professional backgrounds. Strategic Communication (formerly Business Communication) introduces the basics of communication strategy and persuasion: audience analysis, communicator credibility, and message construction and delivery. Written and oral presentation assignments derive from cases that focus on communication strategy. Students receive significant feedback and coaching to improve presentation and writing effectiveness.

    Course Description:

    In this course, you will use improvisation techniques to enhance your ability to think on your feet, connect with others, build trusting relationships, and develop greater confidence to make good things happen. Through improvisation, you will learn how to listen openly, let judgments of yourself and others fall away, and adapt to change. After all, effective leadership communication is that which compels change in what we do as individuals, as a team, and as a company. It is about developing a strategy and communicating it so compellingly that it brings new ideas to life. Improvisation is unique in its ability to heighten awareness of self and others, helping you take and support responsible risks, owning your authority and sharing it well when it makes sense. Staying empathic, agile, and present amidst ambiguity and adversity is essential to cultivating the resilience and integrity needed to become a leader in an increasingly transparent society. That is what this course is designed to help you do!

    Course Description:

    Developing and repairing trust are critical parts of all successful business relationships with clients, direct reports, bosses, and others. Research shows that teams with a high level of trust perform better, recover from setbacks more readily, and even have superior health outcomes. This course will enable you to build trust, facilitate repair when distrust has weakened a relationship, and begin to cultivate environments of trust at work and beyond. Through readings, videos, in-class discussions, analysis of past relationships, and the planning and practice of real-life reparative conversations, you will learn to: 1) Identify the elements of a relationship that build or harm trust, and the associated behaviors used to build strong teams; 2) Apply the knowledge, skills, mindsets, and frameworks to lead reparative conversations with individuals and groups; and 3) Increase your ability to assess trust levels and make informed decisions about the best way to move forward. Regardless of your starting point, Reparative Conversations will empower you to better manage the cycle of building, maintaining, and repairing trust, as well as creating more resilient relationships.

  • MGMT-GB.2113The Strategist (1.5)
    Course Description:

    Business success requires being different. To succeed, a business needs to stand out from the competition. This is what business strategy courses teach, and they are right. But finding a way to be different is harder than just knowing that it is important to be different. This is the fundamental challenge facing the business strategist. It is the challenge of looking at an existing organization and coming up with ways to make its position in the marketplace more distinctive. Or, it is the challenge of looking at the potential of a new business and creating a distinct position for it. The strategist is equally important in the worlds of existing enterprise and of entrepreneurship. The challenge of being different is considerable. Much of the time, everyone has access to more or less the same knowledge base. This is likely even more the case today, in a globally interconnected world, relative to the past. In this environment, the key to being different becomes one's ability to think differently. Of course, one has to think both differently and better, and come up with not just a different but a superior business proposition. Out-thinking others in this way is the job of the business strategist. In this course, we will develop a four-way framework to help us think differently and better and become better business strategists. The four components of the framework (4 C's) are: Strategy from Contrast Strategy from Combination Strategy from Constraint Strategy from Context We will examine many examples of great business strategies of each of these four types, and we will also use this framework to help us generate entirely new strategies.

    Course Description:

    We are all consumers. We buy groceries, computers, and cars. We purchase services ranging from bank accounts to college educations. However, we also differ from each other. We buy different clothes, drive different cars, and eat at different restaurants. Even the same consumer can make different decisions depending on the situation. So how are we to construct coherent marketing strategies? In this class we examine why consumers behave the way that they do. We will explore our intuitions about our own behavior, learn about theories developed in marketing, psychology, and sociology, and use these theories to predict how consumers will respond to marketing actions. The goals of this class are to acquire knowledge of a) a framework for analyzing consumer behavior problems, b) relevant psychological and sociological theories, and c) methods for studying consumer behavior and learn to apply this knowledge to measure what consumers believe and want, predict how consumers will react to different marketing strategies, and solve real-world consumer behavior problems.

Technology

  • TECH-GB.2147Databases for Business Analytics (1.5)
    Course Description:

    Databases are ubiquitous in all businesses and hold significant information about the business. Every data analysis and report typically starts with an SQL query, as SQL is the lingua franca of all database systems. Therefore, SQL is necessary for anyone who needs to analyze data as part of their job. Many tech companies consider the knowledge of SQL a prerequisite for all their analysts and managers. This database class is designed for absolute beginners and teaches students how databases are structured and how to write SQL queries that retrieve data from a database. The class is heavily hands-on, focusing on developing the necessary skills for writing SQL queries. We will cover the following topics: Basics of Entity-Relationship model, and the connection to databases USE, DESCRIBE queries, to understand the structure of a database Selection queries: *, column, column AS, DISTINCT, ORDER BY, LIMIT Filtering data using "where": Boolean conditions, IN, BETWEEN, LIKE Join queries: Inner and Outer joins, self-joins Aggregation queries: GROUP BY, SUM, AVG, MAX, MIN, etc Subqueries Window queries (if time allows) After this course, students will be able to navigate relational databases, issue queries against databases in an organization, and generate data that can be used for analyses and reports. This course is the first half of the traditional 3cr. version of Dealing with Data (TECH-GB 2346). Students who took TECH-GB 2346 should not take this course.
