Executive upgrade
Geopolitik, globale transformationer og ledelse
Hvor er din organisation sårbar, når verden ændrer sig? Få værktøjerne til at kortlægge geopolitiske risici i forsyningskæder, energi og teknologi og til at bygge en mere robust organisation. Lær hvordan du omsætter geopolitisk usikkerhed til konkret strategi og lederskab i din virksomhed.
Start: 4. maj 2027
Formål
Få en grundig forståelse af, hvordan geopolitiske forandringer påvirker din virksomheds strategiske handlemuligheder. Kurset giver dig teorier og praktiske værktøjer til at vurdere, hvordan krig, handelskonflikter, industripolitik og kampen om energi og teknologi påvirker markeder og forsyningskæder. Du lærer også at kortlægge, hvor din organisation er sårbar gennem sine teknologiske, energimæssige og værdikæderelaterede afhængigheder.
Med det får du et grundlag for at positionere din organisation i forhold til dens centrale udfordringer og for at opbygge resiliente og adaptive strategier, der holder til usikre tider.
Dit udbytte
- Du kan forklare, hvad den aktuelle geopolitiske udvikling betyder for jeres forretning, og hvad den ikke betyder.
- Du ved, hvor jeres organisation er sårbar, fx i forsyningskæder, energi, teknologi eller på vigtige markeder.
- Du har kortlagt jeres konkrete afhængigheder og har bud på, hvordan I kan reducere risikoen.
- Du kan se, hvordan EU’s, Kinas og USA’s industripolitik og regulering ændrer markederne, og hvor der opstår nye muligheder.
- Du kan bringe geopolitik ind i strategiarbejdet, så det bliver en del af beslutningerne og ikke kun en overskrift i nyhederne.
- Du står stærkere som leder, når usikkerheden er stor, og kan balancere risiko og muligheder, så I ikke bare reagerer.
- Du kommer hjem med en analyse af jeres egen organisation, som I kan bruge med det samme.
Om kurset
Kurset tager dig fra det store geopolitiske billede helt ned til din egen organisation. Du starter med at få overblik over de forandringer, der præger verden lige nu: geopolitik, globaliseringens nye vilkår, geoøkonomi og industripolitik. Derefter ser du på, hvor sårbarhederne opstår, fx i forsyningskæder, energi, teknologi og cyber og som følge af krig og klimaforandringer. Du ser også på, hvordan EU, Kina og USA navigerer i den globale økonomi. Undervejs kortlægger du din egen organisations afhængigheder og omsætter dem til strategi. Til sidst arbejder du med, hvad geopolitisk usikkerhed kræver af dig som leder.
