Focus and learning objectives
Following the success of previous years, the course Managing International Relations is proposed in a new edition inevitably focused on the evolution of the international geopolitical and geo-economic context during the Covid-19 pandemic.
A manager of international relations must be able to intercept, understand and manage change and complexity not only at a strategic level, as in the case of major trends, but also at an operational level.
Therefore, the learning objectives of the course are:
- Understand the main aspects of international dynamics at political, economic and security levels;
- Acquire a simple but effective methodology of analysis;
- Develop the basic tools to produce and disseminate analyses and evaluations useful for decision making.
Interactive, practical, authoritative
The course contents will be deployed both through methodological modules on the analysis of international relations and through in-depth modules on the most topical issues, thanks to the contribution of top-level experts.
It will be delivered in English through live E-Learning sessions, in which participants will be involved in an intensive and interactive experience that will end with a group-work, aimed at immediately putting into practice the knowledge and skills acquired.
