What does the syllabus cover in the 8 business strategy
sessions versus 22 of corporate strategy? (Re: "30 sessions,
of which about 8 deal with business strategy and the rest,
with corporate strategy, both formulation and
implementation")
Only 8 business strategy sessions seems underweight...
Is this because you cover some bus strategy subjects in,
say, marketing?
Or is there another reason to weight corporate strategy so
heavily?
