Course Objectives: | We are faced with a new technology, a new production and a new social structure. In this process, which started with the communication revolution, the share of information in production increases and it gradually becomes the most important element. This process, which is generally accepted as "globalization", has been described by researchers from different perspectives and its different aspects have been brought to the fore. Although the dominant role played by states in the international arena still continues, new players have entered the stage with the process of globalization. While the international arena of struggle has transformed into a multi-stakeholder and multi-layered global arena, the concept of “Management” has evolved towards the concept of “Governance” in which many new actors are included in the game. While management techniques are transforming into a contemporary form, the term "International Management" has been replaced by the term "Global Governance". The emergence of the global economy necessitated a global management approach in contemporary businesses.
