Overview
Key facts
Advanced Strategy takes an in-depth view of the process of strategy formulation and implementation through the lens of key themes/topics pertinent to the contemporary strategists.Using a combination of cases of (un)successful firms, some readings and, most importantly, lively discussion, this module will explore the ways in which long term advantage is built and continuously influenced by contextual issues at firm and industry levels. Students will focus particularly on how the thinking, actions and capabilities of the strategist develops in this process; the mind-set needed to build and sustain competitive advantage over time, and on the strategic implications of understanding what defines firm's success.
University of Birmingham's MBA Essentials - Advanced Strategy programme will teach you more about this topic.
