The world is speeding rapidly toward a completely global economy. Respected thought-leader Jeffrey Garten understands how this new environment impacts business— and the skills business leaders need to thrive. The Global Future: The economy has gone global. Asian markets are exploding, and economic opportunities abound in South America and Europe. The results are changing patterns of trade and investments, and intersections of policy and interests throughout the world — all leading to questions and uncertainty. As one of the nation’s foremost experts on globalization, Jeffrey Garten provides audiences with the skills they need to navigate the ever-shifting, borderless global economy. Leading in the New Business Climate: Today’s business climate requires new leadership skills. While traditional styles are still beneficial, with a global economy that’s constantly in flux — and a workforce that reflects this unprecedented economic diversity — a new leadership toolkit has become a necessity. Garten explores the challenges business leaders will face in the decade ahead: responding to emerging markets, aggressively pursuing innovation, investing in design and coping with the changing political and social environment. From Theory to Practice: Experienced on all levels, Garten understands the theories: a professor of the Yale School of Management, he’s also served as U.S. commerce undersecretary for international trade. Moreover, he also understands how economic theory is put into practice: a former investment banker, he’s the author of "The Mind of the CEO" which details the innermost thoughts of 40 corporate titans while describing the strategic challenges they face. Audiences benefit from the breadth of his experience and expertise — from the ivory tower to the real-world marketplace. Titles Where Is the Global Economy Headed and What Will It Mean for You?
