  • Objectives

    The program is addressed to undergraduates, graduates and young professionals interested in Business Administration and motivated to broaden their knowledge, upgrade their job-related skills and boost their career.

    This intensive program in Italy aims to give participants the opportunity to enhance their leadership skills and to master specific competences in business negotiations and intercultural management in an international environment. At the same time, participants will directly get in contact with and have a practical insight into the Italian socio-economic environment, where a wealth of clusters and districts of SMEs have gained worldwide reputation through diffuse entrepreneurship, internationalization and technological innovation.

    The course gives participants the mindset, the approach, the methodologies and the tools to manage people and projects in a super-V.U.C.A. world, acquiring specific intercultural communication, negotiation and bargaining skills that are therefore vital for any leader defining and implementing international development strategies, planning entry and distribution strategies in international markets, identifying and developing international Strategic Alliances and Partnerships in this new global and competitive scenario.
