Sample Talks (5)
A Two Speed World: Convergence or DeLinking
How economies from the western world and emerging markets are either converging or de-linking. Five major scenarios that shows the facts between the two economies.
Global Corporate Strategy: Effectiveness for Mythical
Most corporate ‘strategic plans’ have little to do with strategy. They are simply a three-year or five-year rolling resource budgets and some sort of market share projection. Calling it ‘strategic planning’ creates false expectations that the exercise will somehow produce a coherent strategy.
Globalization: Myth or Reality
Although major advances have been made in the area of globalization, a number of factors remain and current political events may slow its future growth
Infrastructure Financing: The Role for Increased Public Private Partnership
There is tremendous investment demand for improving infrastructure. This demand for investment cannot be met by the state alone and therefore the gap must be filled with an effective framework for public=private partnership.
Global Financial Markets: From Boom to Bust
Financial markets are become more global and markets are highly integrated and interdependent. On one hand this has helped diversify risk and on the other has increased the frequency and intensity of financial crisis.
