Basic Training for Survival in the Global Economy
What impact does the emergence of a global economy have on you? Quite simply, it means that all aspects of daily business life may be influenced by decisions made in France, China, or Botswana. Where do I work? What do I consume? How much do I pay? Answers to these questions and more will be ruled by the laws of economics. There are no borders and no specail treatments in this world.
How do you compete in the business world? The first step is to know the ground rules-- the laws of economics. Why do countries trade? How are prices determined? How does a change in U.S. monetary policy affect the cost of my vacation in Europe? Do not bet on your competitor not knowing the answers.
