Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire
The course is meant to endow students with the theoretical constructs and methodological techniques needed to design an effective business strategy. Two major factors underpin the achievement of this objective: 1) the focus on the determinants of value creation; 2) the assessment of contingencies that drive business operations in the real world. In the aftermath of the financial crisis occurred in 2008-2009, markets are characterized by a high degree of turbulence, unexpected events and fierce competition. In such a context, implementing an effective strategy is mandatory for firms struggling to achieve and sustain a competitive advantage. Thereafter, it is important to develop the competences required to carry out a strategic analysis that supports: 1) the survival and growth of firms; 2) a superior rate of profitability in the long run; 3) a thorough understanding of customers needs; 4) the knowledge of strengths and weaknesses of the firm.
