Thunderbird School of Global Management is the vanguard of global leadership and management education for the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and is so much more than a school. Ushering in the Thunderbird 4.0 era, is a new state-of-the-art Global Headquarters building that leverages the latest cutting-edge learning technology for their students. Thunderbird’s global footprint has also grown over the years, with operations now in Geneva, Dubai, Tokyo, Seoul, Nairobi, Jakarta and nearly 15 others. Thunderbird’s regional Centers of Excellence ensure that the School is now the world’s first truly “global multinational business school,” committed to training the next generation of global and digital leaders. As the world continues innovating, and technology changes the way we live and work, Thunderbird is developing nimble, ethical, global leaders who can seize the opportunities offered by the Fourth Industrial Revolution to create sustainable prosperity worldwide. Thunderbird's faculty actively research and develop case studies based on complex current global business scenarios. Impeccably written and thought-provoking, these cases are used in Thunderbird degree programs and executive education environments to illustrate real-world global management occurrences and initiate deep analysis and professor/student discussion of causes and solutions. These unique case studies offer brilliant insight into international business and are available for purchase as part of the Thunderbird Case Series, which was created in 1997. In total the collection available through The Case Centre numbers 496 cases, many with accompanying instructor materials, software and videos. Eight of those are prize-winning cases. |
