  • How to build strong global brands
  • How to develop marketing mix strategies that are a smart combination of global standardization, local adaptation and worldwide learning
  • How to manage global brands
  • How global brands contribute to the ultimate metric that matters in the C-suite, namely, shareholder value

The course will help you achieve your career goals, as many of you will work for companies that own global brands, acquire global brands or compete with global brands.
