Module 13: External Growth Strategies and Implementation
This module continues the discussion of strategy implementation by focusing on the management issues that arise in different types of growth and the optimal mode of growth for a company. Mergers, acquisitions, and alliances are mechanisms by which strategy is implemented, rather than the strategies themselves. The turbulence caused by political uprisings, worldwide economic recessions, and natural disasters all motivate strategy decisions. This module is designed to reinforce the course’s emphasis on thorough analysis and effective strategy implementation.
