Global Leadership & Management

 

In your own words, answer this unit’s discussion questions in a main post (recommended minimum 300 words)

Political systems vary greatly across the world. Many countries are experiencing transitions from one political position to another, such as from a democratic state to a socialist one. Others are incorporating new technology. Such transitions relate to global integration trends.

Discuss a minimum of 2 transition strategies and the importance of each strategy to the overall global integration process.

Review and consider the strategies presented by 2 of your peers.

One approach to your replies is to share your thoughts. Address additional supporting reasons on the importance of the strategies presented. Another approach would be to expand on the discussion. Provide your perspective by introducing examples and possible outcomes.
