Im currently living in Bangkok, studying business administration in Mahidol University, CMMU. Im here for one semester as a fulltime student. Im studying courses; International Business Management, Competitive Strategy, Cross Cultural Management and Mangement of Innovation.
Studying in another country is a learning experience of it's own. Today I had my first Competitive Strategy class. My professor is Thai, but have been studying in London. Theoretically, the course adds nothing new but they apply theory and work with cases is very different and hands on way, that I am not use to. That alone really teaches me a great deal. It forces me to think different from what I am use to at CBS. It also forces me to combine the theory I have learned in CBS new ways, ways I have not really thought of until this point.
I am looking very much forward to this semester and I hope that I can get the courses translated into the CBS system. From the paper it seems that these courses overlaps my courses at CBS but the reality is so different. The Asian way is really going to challenge me and push me to apply theory and think of the tactics.
