Course Highlights:
“Students delve into the business environment of London, a global financial center, and examine how Britain will deal with the effects of Brexit in areas such as production, transport, finance, and legal compliance by hearing from managers of international companies, government agencies, law firms and advertisers. My goal is to connect theory with practice through observation and discussion, evaluating the risks and opportunities facing multinational enterprises, employees, and service providers.” – Lynnette Guzzino
