Overview
All firms operate within competitive and institutional landscapes that are shaped and framed by government. However, firms have the power to help shape the role of government through non-market strategy, both to protect their own interests and to help improve the efficacy of the public-private partnership. Furthermore, managers must navigate the complex intersection between business objectives and the values, norms, and expectations of the societies in which they operate. Increasingly, global challenges related to the global economy, geopolitics, technology competition and climate change require organizations to adapt their strategies. We will focus on how understanding these trends and the trade-offs they highlight can help senior executives better shape strategies at the intersection of public and private sectors.
