A Toolkit for Geopolitical Shocks - Virtual

Right now, the world is experiencing at least two "Black Swans" (and they may be mating): COVID-19 and an oil price war.  All Business Schools offer you frameworks for sound decisions in conventional times: so-called strategic frameworks like Porter's Five Forces, the Four Ps of Marketing and Discounted Cash flow. But how do you model - or at least think through clearly - geopolitical shocks, "Black Swans", like COVID19, the oil price war? In this session, Dr. Milo Jones will not offer you a crystal ball to see the future.  He will, provide a toolkit to make sense of the present, and catch a glimpse of the future.
