Handelszeitung: New ZHAW Continuing Education Program on Geopolitics and Business
In its special issue "Education & Careers", the current Handelszeitung presents the new CAS Geopolitics and Business Strategy offered by the ZHAW School of Management and Law. Increasing geopolitical tensions and growing economic fragmentation are creating new challenges for companies worldwide – challenges that the course will prepare decision-makers to meet starting in April 2026.
In the Handelszeitung, author Daniel Tschudy introduces the new continuing education program, which is offered by the ZHAW Center for Geopolitics and Competitiveness. Its head, who also directs the new CAS Geopolitics and Business Strategy, explains:
“The current geopolitical situation demands greater resilience from companies. Only in this way – especially for SMEs – can they respond to the many challenges appropriately and strategically, thereby mitigating operational risks.”
The part-time CAS is designed for professionals and executives from the private sector who wish to enhance their strategic decision-making capabilities in a global context. A central component of the program is scenario work – a method used to develop hypothetical future scenarios and derive strategic options for action.
