Kogod Global Management Institute
2010 marked the launch of the Kogod Global Management Institute (KGMI). KGMI is an intensive one-week program for practitioners and graduate students that explores the critical importance that emerging markets play in the global economy. The program will analyze issues such as why successful companies often fail in emerging markets, assessing political and economic risks, ethical issues, and business opportunities within these markets. The program includes site visits to institutions such as the Export-Import Bank of the United States, the International Monetary Fund, the Office of the United States Trade Representative, and the World Bank.

Famous quotes containing the words global, management and/or institute:
“The Sage of Toronto ... spent several decades marveling at the numerous freedoms created by a “global village” instantly and effortlessly accessible to all. Villages, unlike towns, have always been ruled by conformism, isolation, petty surveillance, boredom and repetitive malicious gossip about the same families. Which is a precise enough description of the global spectacle’s present vulgarity.”
—Guy Debord (b. 1931)
“The care of a house, the conduct of a home, the management of children, the instruction and government of servants, are as deserving of scientific treatment and scientific professors and lectureships as are the care of farms, the management of manure and crops, and the raising and care of stock.”
—Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
“Whenever any form of government shall become destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, & to institute new government, laying it’s foundation on such principles & organising it’s powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety & happiness.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
