Corporate Entrepreneurial Strategies Print E-mail
Building a profitable company in today's dynamic business climate is an immense challenge. It is not "business as usual". New and different forces are shaping the global competitive landscape: 1.) Hyper-rapid technological development is radically changing the way that we all live, work, purchase, collect information, communicate, and even think; 2.) the World Wide Web did not exist a mere ten years ago; now it dominates the strategic mindset of every company, further eliminating global barriers to commerce; 3.) Entrepreneurship has emerged as a world priority as more and more companies are searching for opportunistic exploitation of global markets. Simultaneously, more universities are developing curricula in venture creation and growth, furthering the competitive intensity.

We can determine what our competitors are doing in the "www.fishbowl", but how do we gain sustainable Competitive advantage? In this interactive course, we will explore the many factors leading to durable corporate success through the strategic application of entrepreneurial principles. Together, we will investigate:

  • Entrepreneurial drivers for Change within the organization.
  • Are there predictive Models of Entrepreneurship for successful / unsuccessful ventures?
  • How can an Entrepreneurial Culture survive and thrive within an established corporation?
  • Conversion of Opportunity and Value Proposition into an attractive corporate investment.
  • From where does Sustainable Competitive Advantage come?
