5 Topics (more detailed): 1. Business breakdown & Map The basics (Vision, Mission, Stakeholders & Governance) & Environmental Analysis - Competition. Understanding the profitability of an industry as well as its markets 8 hours of training Lecturer: Dr. Constantine Kiritsis This module is about understanding how a business can be mapped by outlining the main areas all organizations need to go through. These are outlined in three main brackets, Analysis (position), Choice (options for growth) and Implementation. The module starts with an introduction of business in the 21st century and how different it is compared to 5 years ago, mainly due to technological advances, the internet, speed, interactivity, virtual structures and other. It deals with the understanding of the three levels of strategy as well (Corporate, Business & Functional) as well as the objectives of each level through various practical examples of well known organizations. Furthermore, the module explains and analyses concepts such as Vision, Mission, Corporate culture, Stakeholder analysis and governance issues. These points are the first part of the map and therefore need to be addressed prior to any other modules. Therefore: Topics: The changing nature of business 20th century vs 21st century Vision & Mission business purpose & strategy (as a concept) Stakeholder Analysis & Mapping Corporate governance basics Business mapping part 1 PwC Mini MBA Programme 5

6 2. Corporate & Business Strategy Understanding strategy development based on critical success factors, portfolios & internal analysis. Selecting options for growth & being innovative 8 hours of training Lecturer: Dr Constantine Kiritsis This module deals with the concept of industry and how it can be analysed through practical examples of industries. It goes into analysing business environments at national & international level through the PESTEL (Politics, Economics, Social, Technology, Environment and Legal) framework before going into the concept of competition and profitability of an industry mainly through the 5 forces framework. This module attempts to explore areas such as barriers of entry, customer switching costs, supplier and buyer power, substitute products & services, the role of international organizations and governments on industries and competition, regulations as well as national competitive advantage possibilities. Therefore: Topics: Industry, Industry types Industry evolution & mobility Analysis of environments at national & international level (PESTEL) Competitive environment analysis (5 forces theory) National competitive advantage (Diamond theory) Forecasting This module also deals with strategy development. Logically, after the main idea (purpose vision and mission), and the analysis of the competitive environment for any idea (even start-ups) it is essential for the organization to decide on what strategy to adopt. If the company is already operating for some time, at this point it is essential for the organization to match its competencies, skills and knowledge to the environment findings from module 2 to evaluate its strategy and make any necessary alterations. This module asks the main question of how do companies compete? First of all, the concept of cost & differentiation is addressed and analysed. Then the idea of competing in a specific segment (niche); Then the concept of strategic groups is addressed mainly based on two parameters: Price & quality. Furthermore, the idea of the strategic clock is examined which offers the hybrid strategy option. After the analysis of the above topics, the analysis of products and services is undertaken through classic models such as the BCG matrix, the GE matrix, the Product Life Cycle (with a special focus on the short life cycles of many products in the 21st century). One of the most important areas in this module is the analysis of the critical success factors of an organization prior to setting the Key performance indicators (KPI s) since these areas need to be part of the strategy (if characterized as critical). Finally, the concept of the value chain is addressed as well as a short analysis of resources is undertaken in this module but not extensive as there are other modules that cover these areas (HR & Finance). Topics: How do companies compete? Cost vs Differentiation Niche strategies Strategy clock Strategic group positioning BCG Matrix Product Life Cycle CSF s & KPI s Value chain analysis Resources & Competencies 6 PwC Mini MBA Programme

7 CHOICE Section 2.1 Selecting options for growth & being Innovative based on your SWOT This is one of the most important areas of the programme. It actually uses the previous modules as a foundation to start the choice section. After every company analyses its environment, its competition, its customers, its marketing strategy as well as its overall strategy and products (among other) it is essential for it to move forward and grow. Based on the company s SWOT analysis, we turn it into a TOWS matrix and then identify the directions a company can take for growth based on markets and products (& services). The concept of diversification is analysed here as well as the various methods for growth such as Franchising, Mergers, acquisitions, JV s etc. One of the most important points is the strategy evaluation of these methods as well as issues relating to corporate parenting and Strategic Business Units. Lecturer: Dr. Constantine Kiritsis Topics: SWOT TOWS Directional matrix Means & methods for growth Licensing Franchising Acquisitions Mergers Exporting Joint Ventures Organic Growth Vertical & horizontal growth Corporate parenting Strategy evaluation & decision making Innovation & knowledge management PwC Mini MBA Programme 7
