Yale SOM Global Network Week Alumni Reception and Panel Discussion “Globalization and Teamwork: Past and Future”
Yale SOM Global Network Week Alumni Reception
and Panel Discussion Moderated by Yale SOM Dean Emeritus Jeffrey E. Garten
“Globalization and Teamwork: Past and Future”
Today's global business environment is more connected than ever. A broad global perspective and understanding of the connections between markets is a critical skill for any leader. To succeed globally, leaders need to understand local, national, and regional contexts, but most importantly, leaders need to understand how to create and manage global teams. What makes global teams succeed or fail? What skills are needed to work on projects with teams spread across cultures and time zones? What are key organizational and leader attributes that need to exist to enable today’s virtual teams?How does one navigate the complexity of a globalized business landscape?
We invite all alumni of the Global Network of Advanced Management (GNAM) to join Yale School of Management Dean Emeritus Jeffrey Garten and a panel of distinguished alumni representing several GNAM member business schools for a dynamic, real-world conversation. Global Network Week students visiting Yale SOM will also attend. Garten will reflect upon his new book, From Silk to Silicon: The Story of Globalization Through Ten Extraordinary Lives, and will lead a panel discussion about the implications of globalization on the future of teamwork across regions, cultures, and sectors.
The evening will begin with a networking reception with beverages and hors d'oeuvres.
