Goal
Becoming a future leader can be helped by understanding the careers of some of the leading players in the business world. Accommodating at the same time history, general knowledge of the business world and theories about the decisions and strategies, this elective aims to sensitise students to the world of top leaders and the way they use their talent, their strategic choices and their way of managing their environment. All of these elements have made them icons of the business world.
At the end of the course, the student should be able to:
- develop a critical vision of the economic world and in particular of capitalism in its teaching and its practice
- maintain awareness of the evolution in the world of the big firms, their history and their current issues.
