About the Course

Corporate strategy is the strategy a firm uses to compete across multiple businesses. Many small firms want to grow by entering new businesses. Many large firms already are in multiple businesses, e.g. a photo camera producer selling also sunglasses. We developed this course to help you make good corporate strategy decisions. Of the many decisions a firm has to make, corporate strategy decisions are among the most consequential. We will look at these key corporate strategy decisions: - Diversification: How and which businesses should your firm enter? - Divestiture: How and from which businesses should your firm exit? - Corporate HQ: How should we organize corporate headquarters to create value across the different businesses?...

Good presentation and material. My challenge was the concept of "outgoing benefits and incoming benefits." i struggled to understand. Within the period available, I believe this is well structured enough for the purpose .

Gave me good knowledge in fundamental theories. The quizzes and peer-reviews were difficult enough so you can't just browse through them, but you don't have to put in a lot of extra time either.
