The purpose of this assignment is to prepare you for the Global Megatrends, Geopolitics & Political Economy (MAN 6636) course. Among the topics that will be discussed in that course is the impact of global megatrends on business and on how leaders need to think in order to be successful in a highly unpredictable environment.Please study the reference materials below. I strongly suggest that, as you read them, you take careful notes and reflect on the disruptive impact that these megatrends may have on a real-life company in the real business world.
- Five megatrends and their implications for global defense & security (Links to an external site.). This document is an excellent example of how to translate megatrends into concrete business implications and challenges for companies in a specific industry (in this case, global defense & security).
- The global forces inspiring a new narrative of progress (Links to an external site.).
- Navigating a world of disruption (Links to an external site.).
- HP annual megatrends 2019 (Links to an external site.). You need to watch the video and read the 35-page report.
