Information about the course operational model is provided at the time of enrollment for the selection process.    Required courses    Strategic Management  For a company to succeed, it needs to create and sustain competitive advantages and understand the environment in which it operates. This course analyzes the fundamentals of strategic management, enhancing your ability to formulate and implement effective strategies. Topics include competition analysis and dynamics, resources and core competencies, mergers and acquisitions, strategic alliances, corporate governance, and strategic leadership.    Quantitative Methods for Decision Making  The effectiveness of your managerial performance depends on your ability to interpret statistical information and the use of quantitative tools for decision-making and problem-solving. The use of statistics in organizations encompasses various functions, addressed in other Executive MBA courses: Accounting, Finance, Marketing, Operations, and Economics. Some of the practical tools you will learn include sampling, hypothesis testing, comparisons, regressions, and statistical methods for quality control.    Business Economics  Microeconomic theories and methodologies should guide decision-making to ensure capital and technology resources are applied effectively by various companies and organizations. This course presents a set of economic analysis techniques to assist professionals in decision-making regarding pricing and capital expenditures, demand forecasting, cost analysis, and production levels. These decisions must consider the economic and market conditions, competitors' reactions, political, legal, and regulatory constraints, as well as internal limitations, particularly related to operational processes and people management, bridging connections with other courses in the program.    Organizational Behavior and Human Resources Management  Introduction to the main themes of Organizational Behavior, motivation, leadership, organizational culture, power and communication, roles in human resources management, labor relations, compensation, attraction, selection, and development. This course aims to equip students for effective management and leadership of individuals, areas, and projects, as well as to aid in reflecting on and improving their own behaviors when interacting with subordinates, peers, and superiors.    Global Economic Environment  Today's business leaders cannot ignore the economic environment in which the organization operates. This course develops the analytical capacity necessary to guide managerial decisions, allowing for the management of the company's interaction with its environment, both domestic and international. The study of relevant national macroeconomic relations includes topics such as government policy, public deficit, economic stabilization and growth, interest rates, exchange rates, and inflation, followed by the analysis of international competition and globalization effects, covering international trade and investment, international capital flows, international financial markets, and interest rate determination.    Accounting for Business Analysis  Accounting deserves emphasis due to higher demand for transparency from privately and publicly traded companies by financial and capital markets. Understanding the accounting environment of the organizations we work in and with which we want to do business is vital to measure the economic return of these organizations and understand the degree of risk we are exposed to within the context of financial statement analysis.    Operations Management of Manufacturing and Services  In both manufacturing and service companies, operations management has been recognized as a crucial competitive leverage, requiring a strategic and systemic perspective that considers market contingencies and positioning in the production chain. You will understand the strategic foundations of operations and learn to make decisions related to various areas of operations management, such as product design, production processes, quality management, capacity management, production planning and control, and supply chain management.    Marketing Management  The role of Marketing for the company needs to be understood in terms of actions, decisions, and interactions with other areas of the organization within a general management context. This course will enable you to participate in developing marketing strategies and actions that lead to competitive advantages and achieving business goals. You will also learn to control marketing mix elements, including product policy, distribution channels, communication, and pricing, to meet customer needs profitably. The course also covers the intelligent use of market information, relationship management with consumers, integrated communication, and marketing action implementation and control.    Information Technology  Increasingly, information and knowledge management in companies is critical to success. Information systems become tools to support business processes that, in turn, support the company's strategy. This course discusses these topics not from a strictly technological viewpoint but from a managerial perspective on how to use information technology for competitive advantages, manage global companies, and develop products and services. Topics analyzed include information flow integration across the company, supply chain and customer relationship management, common decision-related problems, knowledge management, and managerial decision support and integrated management systems.    Finance Fundamentals  Presents the risk-and-return perspective for business assessment and encourages the search for financial solutions for ventures. These solutions need to align with the business strategy, contributing to competitive advantage creation.    Entrepreneurship  This course will present and discuss the possibilities of entrepreneurship as a career, whether creating and developing new companies or new businesses within existing companies, or the relationship between idea and business opportunity.    Strategic Negotiation  This course develops negotiation skills by analyzing the foundations of effective negotiation, various negotiation strategy scenarios, and conflict resolution methods. Traditionally, negotiation skills have been used by leaders to resolve conflicts and make deals. But in a world with an increasing number of influential stakeholders; with authority and hierarchy less sufficient to ensure cooperation and commitment; with increasingly flat and fluid organizational structures; with an ever-accelerating pace of change; and with greater diversity and global reach, internal and external negotiations have become the way of life for effective leaders.    Business Game  Students have the opportunity to experience managing a company by applying concepts and skills acquired throughout the course in a simulated situation, where they compete in teams to develop and execute a business plan. Positioned as managers, students make strategic decisions with guidance from a professor, who monitors team performance and measures the impact of choices on the final result.    Leadership Skills  This course is developed through parallel in-person activities from the Business Game groups and distance activities. The course will help prepare for more effective leadership by addressing individual, group, and organizational dimensions. On the individual level, topics include self-perception, motivation, communication, and learning skills. Regarding team and area performance, students will learn about group functioning, designing effective communication processes, and establishing appropriate leadership concerning people, tasks, and structure under their responsibility.    Applied Project  As a pedagogical characteristic of our programs is student-centered learning using case studies, for certification purposes, each participant will develop a case on a business problem faced by a company or organization or develop a business plan for a startup. In this activity, the student should use all techniques and concepts developed throughout the program. The applied project should be developed individually.    (*) Electives    Allow students to delve into specific topics.
