The Subject “AI in Global Strategy and Decision-Making” is included within the curriculum of the following academic programs at EENI Global Business School:
Enhanced Decision-Making: AI processes vast datasets in real-time,
uncovering patterns and insights that humans might miss. For instance,
predictive analytics helps businesses forecast market trends, customer
behavior, and operational
Risk, enabling proactive strategies. Examples
include Walmart using AI to optimize inventory and Uber leveraging machine
learning for demand forecasting.
Strategic Planning: AI augments traditional strategic tools like
Porter’s Five Forces by generating scenarios and evaluating strategies. It
acts as a thought partner, challenging biases and simulating market
scenarios to refine decisions.
Global Operations: AI optimizes global supply chains, automates
repetitive tasks, and enhances cross-cultural communication through natural
language processing. For multinational enterprises, AI can inform entry mode
choices and manage virtual teams across borders.
Customer and Market Insights: AI personalizes customer
experiences, improves marketing agility, and supports market expansion by
analyzing local dynamics and cultural preferences.
Geopolitical Risk Management: AI processes global
risk data, detecting weak signals and simulating scenarios to help
businesses navigate disruptions like supply chain issues or regulatory
shifts.
By 2030, the global AI market is projected to reach $826.7 billion, with 90%
of business
leaders viewing AI as critical to strategy. As generative AI and
decision intelligence evolve, businesses that integrate AI
thoughtfully—balancing automation with human insight—will lead in innovation and
resilience.
