Commitment
to Your Profession
Economic
Forces at Work
The charge to lead organizations grows increasingly
more complex as our world becomes ever more
interdependent. Individual business and organizational
success is intricately connected to the greater societal,
national and global forces at work.
Business leaders create sustainable strategy only through deep understanding
of these larger forces and trends. Stanford Graduate School of Business
Economics Professor, Robert Flanagan, leads an executive-level program
designed to illuminate how microeconomics and macroeconomics impact the
formulation and conduct of effective HR management strategy and theory.
This comprehensive program dives into macro-level policy debates and the
influence on competitive strategy, as well as micro economic developments
in labor markets including changing demographics, sources of increased
wage dispersion and the supply of skill. Participants will also address
international influences and the affect on HR strategy. Leave this session
armed with critical business knowledge and insights to create impactful
HR strategy for your organization.
