This course provides a broad view of entrepreneurship. Topics include the business plan, raising money for a new venture, assessing the riskiness of new businesses and the unique management challenges of startups.

Examines current threats to the sustainability of the global economy, the environmental and social impacts of current business practices, and how both governmental regulations and for profit business initiatives are needed to address these issues.

There are three primary threads in the course. First, the course serves as an overview of the key concepts and frameworks of strategic management and shows how these can be applied in the discussion of particular cases. The second thread is sustainability. Typically, strategic thinking has limited itself to a concern with economic performance; competitive advantage and above-average profitability have been seen as the `holy grail.? This course takes a broader view and sees the `bottom line? in strategic thinking as including environmental and social impacts.
