COUNTRY PRESENTATIONSGlobal Villagers, many of whom are or will bebusiness leaders, are being challenged to oper-ate in an increasingly complex, interdepend-ent, and dynamic global environment. Tocompete and succeed, companies must under-stand the business climate, opportunities, cul-tural nuances, and acceptable business prac-tices of countries around the world. TheCountry Presentations afford Global Villagersthe opportunity to share their countries “bestbusiness practices” with their Village col-leagues, the Lehigh University communityand local business leaders. Through this presentation, the Villagers willbe asked to be creative in “selling” their coun-ty as a potential for business investment.However, the presentation should also be sureto include information on potential obstaclesto overcome, the influence of culture, and

best practices while doing business in thatcountry. The presentations will be evaluatedby a team of Global Village guides and peersfor overall presentation, creativity of presenta-tion, speaking skills, body language, and a rat-ing on the potential of business investment inthat country.

bUSINESS CONSULTING PROJECTSUnder the supervision of an external client andprogram mentor, Global Village consultingteams are challenged to provide an appropriatebusiness solution for an issue or problem facedby an external client. The designs, demands anddeadlines are real. Starting with basic projectmanagement techniques, interns are immersedin the deadlines, client demands, challenges toovercome time constraints, management of cultural barriers and ultimately, to deliver a setof strongly crafted and unique recommenda-tions. For interns who strive to become seniorproject managers, or who want to develop projectmanagement skills for career growth, these projects provide the opportunity to experiencethe pressures and to reap the rewards.

COMPANY VISITSTo further enrich the Global Village learningenvironment, interns may choose to visit alocal company in lieu of attending a facilitat-ed course. Selected companies display cuttingedge best practices, new trends or the factorsthat have led to success. Both small and large companies provide lessons of success in

“hands-on” environments. Business leadershipshare company developments, difficulties,trends and competitive advantages whileinterns ask questions that explore insights intothe company’s growth and development. To lend to the hands on experience,

Global Village interns visit organizations inregional centers of business including NewYork City and Washington DC. A day trip toNew York includes visits to premier businessesand organizations. A multi-day trip toWashington DC provides insight into organi-zations such as the World Bank, and two, halfday trips to organizations centered in the capital of the United States.

PANELSThe Global Village provides discussionsfocused on successful Global Village Alumniand Global and Servant Leadership. A forumwhere the Villagers and the executives inter-act, discuss and debate, sessions are driven bydynamic exchanges, energy and the interac-tions of the panelists with each other.
