Geopolitics and Geoeconomics are the pivotal forces shaping today’s business environment.
As we say, nothing happened in economic vacuum; in the same way, world over nothing happens in geoeconomic vacuum. Hot wars, cold rivalries, global pandemics, and disrupted supply chains are realities in today’s economy. Businesses—and business schools—must adapt. Unlike the relatively stable market of the recent past, today’s economy is marked by upheavals that are extensive, global, and unpredictable. International conflicts, surging prices, and unstable supply chains have caused governments to intervene in ways that are influencing the market.
Business schools must offer interdisciplinary and stackable programs that help managers navigate through the chaos. Turbulent market conditions are created by many factors, and one of the most powerful is known as geoeconomics. This term describes what happens when the state displaces firms as the main decision-maker in a widening range of product markets. Governments do this by instituting sanctions, subsidies, and export controls in markets from medical supplies to energy to semiconductors to agriculture. States intervene in economic relations to further their political goals and seek advantages for their countries.
Today’s volatile market has been deeply affected by geoeconomics, and management education must help students understand this new reality. In a volatile and unpredictable world, it is essential for leaders to have a deeper practical understanding of the wider context and key factors shaping the strategic business environment. There is an urgent need to teach geopolitics and consequent gee-economics in management curriculum. The Role of Management Education is rapidly evolving to respond to the changes induced by geopolitical shifts. In a volatile and unpredictable world, it is essential for leaders to have a deeper practical understanding of the wider context and key factors shaping the strategic business environment. To provide leaders with the information they need when they need it, business schools must embrace new educational formats and financial models.
There is a growing realisation that strategy courses need to provide students with an appreciation of relevant geoeconomic factors. Schools should take an application-oriented approach to combining management theories with an understanding of history, economic policy, international relations, and specific areas of the world (such as Asia). When schools create well-structured interdisciplinary programs that have a pragmatic management focus, they will prepare business students at all levels for the “futures we are in.” They need to train future corporate leaders to persons make informed business decisions in a geopolitically volatile business environment.
