This syllabus was submitted to the Office of Academic Affairs by the course instructor.Successful global business decision makers are effective at adapting to the environments that surround and define their organizations. This course will explore from the perspective of multiple viewpoints and voices, the differences and complications that arise when a business organization’s activities cross political borders and cultural lines. As part of this study, the course will provide an introductory look at the typical functional areas of business as well as the contributions that professionals in those areas make to the decision process. During the semester, students will examine the synergies that might be attained by linking various business practices with the understanding of the geographic, socio-cultural, political, legal, ethical, and ecological perspectives of various other academic and/or professional disciplines.
