It's the first of its kind. The purpose of the Global Business
Leadership Competition (GBLC) is to engage student leaders around the world in
a broad dialogue on global leadership. Outstanding students from top-tier
global MBA programs have been carefully selected and invited to represent their
respective schools in this two-day competition. The event will provide a
forum for students to learn from each other while showcasing and stretching
their own leadership skills and interacting with global business leaders and
academics. The GBLC will serve as a nexus for educational exchange poised at
the forefront of global leadership thinking. This competition will address the
situations and dilemmas that global leaders along any career path may face and
will extend beyond a traditional business case to engage student teams in
interactive, task-oriented scenarios that simulate leadership challenges.
It's Global. The competition will be a convergence of students,
faculty, and industry leaders from every major economic region around the world
– North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.
It's a Learning Forum. Although the GBLC will recognize teams
and individuals who demonstrate outstanding leadership skills, our primary goal
for the competition is to establish a forum to foster leadership thinking – a
forum where students with different perspectives share visions of leadership.
The discussion of ideas, combined with the expertise of seasoned executives who
have faced various global management challenges, provides a unique opportunity
for students to refine their leadership skills.
