Description du contenu de l'enseignement :
Overview
As part of the Risk Management track, this module complements technical courses in supply chain resilience and data-driven risk analysis by offering a geopolitical lens through which future business disruptions can be mapped, interpreted, and mitigated.
Through case studies, simulations, and structured analysis based on Geostrategy by Design, students will learn to connect high-level geopolitical developments with operational and strategic corporate decisions. We also reserve the possibility of inviting an external guest speaker, such as a corporate risk management professional, to provide students with applied insights and real-world perspectives on geopolitical risk management.
This course aims to equip international business students with the tools and mindset required to navigate today's volatile geopolitical landscape. From energy security to supply chain disruption, students will explore how global companies assess, anticipate, and manage geopolitical risk. The course bridges theory and practice through case studies, risk frameworks, and a final simulation exercise.
Why this course matters for the program:
- Develops strategic decision-making and resilience in students
- Connects geopolitics with real business functions (finance, supply chain, compliance) - Promotes analytical rigor and cross-functional skills
