  Learning outcomes of the course

  In this course we will view the supply chain from the point of view of a general manager. Logistics and supply chain management is all about managing the hand-offs in a supply chain - hand-offs of either information or product. The design of a logistics system is critically linked to the objectives of the supply chain. Our goal in this course is to understand how logistical decisions impact the performance of the firm as well as the entire supply chain. The key will be to understand the link between supply chain structures and logistical capabilities in a firm or supply chain.
  Another term that has appeared in the business jargon recently is demand chain. From our perspective we will use the phrases logistics management, supply chain management and demand chain management interchangeably.
  
  ILOs:

  Course contents

  Logistics and supply chain management is unique and, to some degree, represents a paradox because it is concerned with one of the oldest and also the most newly discovered activities of business. Supply chain system activities - communication, inventory management, warehousing, transportation, and facility location - have been performed since the start of commercial activity. It is difficult to visualize any product that could reach a customer without logistical support. Yet it is only over the last few years that firms have started focusing on logistics and supply chain management as a source of competitive advantage. There is a realization that no company can do any better than its logistics system. This becomes even more important given that product life cycles are shrinking and competition is intense. Logistics and supply chain management today represents a great challenge as well as a tremendous opportunity for most firms.

  Learning outcomes of the course

  Course Level Intended Learning Outcomes: You will understand how multinational companies manage their finance, investment and accounting operations globally. You will have several opportunities to develop an understanding of international financial markets and available major financial tools. You will also learn how to use financial tools in managing multifarious financial and non-financial fallout emanating from the fluctuations in the foreign exchange markets, specifically.
  
  You will be able to understand, explore, and analyze multiple financial aspects in the context of multinational corporations. You will learn various conceptual aspects, and their practical applications from the point of view of investors, corporate finance managers, wealth managers, financial analysts, and various other stakeholders.
  
  You will get several opportunities to familiarize with the following Course Level Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs) of Global Financial Management course of the JAMK as below-
  
  Skills in Critical and Analytical Understanding (IBCRI)- Critically review, analyze and understand the information available from academic and professional business sources.
  Reviewing academic literature critically, analyzing and evaluating financial and other business data of MNCs, deliberating diverse approaches, comparing the resultant outcomes, and making value additive informed financial decisions and action plans in the context of global financial transactions. Understanding, exploring, and analyzing multiple theoretical and applied aspects in the context of global financial management measures of the MNCs. Understanding conceptual aspects, and their practical applications from the point of view of investors, and finance managers, in the field of corporate risk management, corporate finance, international finance, accounting information analysis, strategic management accounting, financial institutions and markets, personal finance, etc. Corporate managers aim to find reliable and valid information for decision making by conducting independent research. This requires conducting the literature review of current global financial management issues in the light of underpinning theories, identifying a suitable research topic and forming the relevant research questions.

  Learning outcomes of the course

  This course is targeted to participants that aim to become great sales professionals. The course will be both academically strong and real life oriented. The delivery will consist on a set of tools that are conceptually solid and extremely practical.
  Participants will first learn to map the responsibility allocation and collaboration between sales-marketing functions in a company, to ensure a smooth and productive cooperation. After that, the course will provide a set of pre-sales tools to diagnose the target customers, and design a sales process in the most effective way.
  The core of the course will consist on mastering the whole sales process from beginning to end. Students will be very well guided during all the whole sales process. First, participants will learn to open up customer relationships, in a way that curiosity is triggered, and customers are attracted to further interactions. After that, students will understand the different alternatives to design sales interactions/presentations, strengthened by the persuasion elements that should be added for maximum impact. We live in an information overload society, and the product message should be of high quality, standing above the "excessive media noise", and be remembered.
  This course will develop top skill strengths in the three key "sales challenging elements" required to succeeding in the "sales marathon" until the end: effective negotiations, customer objections, and sales closing tools. Students will receive a very complete set of well defined negotiation difficulties and real-life tested actions, customer objections with professionally practical resolutions, plus a full "hands-on" set of sales closes to guarantee that the deal is completed.
  The course will end with a visual and intuitive selection of metrics to evaluate overall the sales performance, and to map its profitability for the professional and the company.
  All the lecture sessions have been designed in a very dynamic and lively format, so participants will receive not just a set of great tools, but a very "immersive" experiencing of the sales atmosphere with its intensity and focus.
  Sales are needed at many stages in everyone's career. Professionals are continuously selling: not just products, but convincing colleagues about ideas/improvements, selling solutions when real problems appear, selling themselves for a promotion or for a new job, and many other situations. The tools and experiences learned in this course will be priceless for many critical career situations.
  - Sales vs. Marketing: main differences, responsibilities design, models of sales-marketing relationships in companies
  - Sales Cycle Models: Sales Funnel Mapping Tool, Target Segment-Leads-Prospects-First Customer evolution follow-up
  - Pre-Sales Process: Prospect selection, Customer sales-related decision roles, Matching customer decision processes and sales processes
  - Early Sales Process Stages: Relationship opening, Effective Sales Presentation design types / delivery / persuasion tools
  - Mid-Sales Process Stages: Practical sales negotiations, full set of sales objections types, objection resolution strategies
  - Final Sales Process Stages: Effective sales closing types, post-sales management
  - Sales Profitability Assessment: Sales cost/profit metrics, sales success evaluation

  Prerequisites and co-requisites

  Course contents

  This course is targeted to participants that aim to become great sales professionals. The course will be both academically strong and real life oriented. The delivery will consist on a set of tools that are conceptually solid and extremely practical.
  Participants will first learn to map the responsibility allocation and collaboration between sales-marketing functions in a company, to ensure a smooth and productive cooperation. After that, the course will provide a set of pre-sales tools to diagnose the target customers, and design a sales process in the most effective way.
  The core of the course will consist on mastering the whole sales process from beginning to end. Students will be very well guided during all the whole sales process. First, participants will learn to open up customer relationships, in a way that curiosity is triggered, and customers are attracted to further interactions. After that, students will understand the different alternatives to design sales interactions/presentations, strengthened by the persuasion elements that should be added for maximum impact. We live in an information overload society, and the product message should be of high quality, standing above the "excessive media noise", and be remembered.
  This course will develop top skill strengths in the three key "sales challenging elements" required to succeeding in the "sales marathon" until the end: effective negotiations, customer objections, and sales closing tools. Students will receive a very complete set of well defined negotiation difficulties and real-life tested actions, customer objections with professionally practical resolutions, plus a full "hands-on" set of sales closes to guarantee that the deal is completed.
  The course will end with a visual and intuitive selection of metrics to evaluate overall the sales performance, and to map its profitability for the professional and the company.
  All the lecture sessions have been designed in a very dynamic and lively format, so participants will receive not just a set of great tools, but a very "immersive" experiencing of the sales atmosphere with its intensity and focus.
  Sales are needed at many stages in everyones career. Professionals are continuously selling: not just products, but convincing colleagues about ideas/improvements, selling solutions when real problems appear, selling themselves for a promotion or for a new job, and many other situations. The tools and experiences learned in this course will be priceless for many critical career situations
  - Sales vs. Marketing: main differences, responsibilities design, models of sales-marketing relationships in companies

  - Pre-Sales Process: Prospect selection, Customer sales-related decision roles, Matching customer decision processes and sales processes

  Learning outcomes of the course

  A student is required to gain practical business experience in projects and/or practical training worth 15 ECTS points on top of the Future Factory Project (10 ECTS) and Applied Track Project (5 ECTS).
  
  The projects are defined as the process of learning through the planning and implementation of actual real-life projects involving a group of students and a faculty advisor. The needed tools to run projects are taught during the first-year studies. We recommend that project ideas relate to the specialisation studies, practical training, or Bachelor’s Thesis.
  
  Students may complete their practical training as employees in one period or in two parts, thus allowing suitable summer jobs to be included in the degree. Any job to be included in the degree is subject to the approval of the career tutor in advance. Students may complete their projects and practical training abroad.
  
  We suggest that students combine the content of their projects with their chosen specialisation line studies and Bachelor’s Thesis.

  Course contents

  Tailored individually based on the learning goals and career wishes of each student.

  Face-to-face learning
  Flipped classroom model will be used to implement this course.
  Thus, pre-class learning is vital for the successful implementation of the flipped learning model. At course workspace, the teacher will provide you with lecture notes and slides. Each student has to familiarise him/herself with the pre-class learning content. I strongly suggest that students should also gather some other resources and expose themselves to the focal subject area. In the classroom, we will put a greater focus on application of the conceptual knowledge rather than factual recall or straight transfer of the information.
