A dynamic, cross-cultural exchange
Experience the power of the global classroom during Global Network Week, an annual, weeklong event that convenes students from the entire Executive MBA Global Network.
In the company of business leaders with diverse backgrounds and expertise, you will take negotiations and crisis management courses that encourage close collaboration and deep conversation. You will learn with — and from — your peers as you share perspectives, dissect problems and explore topical issues in a highly interactive classroom environment. Outside of class time, enjoy a series of career panels, networking events and social activities.
How it works
- Global Network Week is held in August every year
- All students convene on the Evanston campus, arriving in groups of about 150 each week
- Students based on the Miami or Evanston campuses take courses for six days
- Students based on any non-U.S. campus take courses for 12 days
Test your global business prowess with diverse peers
The two courses you’ll take during Global Network Week — Negotiations Strategies and Strategic Crisis Management — were chosen for a specific reason: They’re ideally suited for a global classroom, where students from diverse geographies, industries and backgrounds can practice global business exchanges in a safe environment. You and your peers will simulate negotiations with companies in, for example, China or Germany, and also practice the management of crises on a global scale. It’s an ideal environment to learn-by-doing, and an optimal time to exchange knowledge with your international peers.
Negotiation Strategies
Learn the art and science of managing and leveraging interdependent relationships. Practice cross-cultural negotiation, dispute resolution, coalition formation and multiparty negotiations, extremely competitive negotiations and negotiating via information technology.
Strategic Crisis Management
Gain conceptual tools for managing complex, high-pressure crisis situations. Dive into topics including management and the media, dealing with activists and interest groups, and surviving legal, legislative and regulatory challenges.
