Certificate Program:

The China Series

Level II Programs
The programs at this level offer participants an unparalleled range of study which enables them to develop the functional skills required for a complete understanding of operating a business as a total enterprise. The objective of the Level II Programs is to lay a strong, broad managerial foundation to prepare the participants for the responsibilities of management positions with Multi-national or Chinese companies.

Program 201 - Operational Management


Program 201 – Operational Management
Program Meets Once A Week
4 Instruction Modules Will Be Covered In 12 Three Hour Sessions

1. Operations Strategy
This module is intended for participants with a strong interest in understanding operations-in either manufacturing or service industries-and the role operations can play in business strategy and competitive advantage. Because the module has a strong managerial focus (assessing a situation, taking effective action, getting things done), it will also be of value to all participants with an interest in general management. It will be particularly valuable for those who see their careers including an assignment in operations over the coming decade, or who see themselves consulting in operations for client businesses.

2. Cost Measurement and Management
Almost all firms are engaged in productivity enhancement and cost control/cost reduction initiatives. This segment provides the tools and techniques for successfully implementing such initiatives. The tools include designing and using measurement systems and incentive systems.

3. Designing, Managing and Improving Operations
This module is intended for participants who expect or consult for operations of any sort over the course of their careers. Such careers include those in manufacturing, management consulting, and the service industries. The focus of the module is on detailing the tools, techniques, and frameworks necessary to design, manage, and improve operations in a broad range of industries, and on providing critical knowledge to prepare participants to take effective action early in their careers.

4. Coordinating and Managing Supply Chains
The production and delivery of products and services requires the coordination of tasks performed by various individuals and departments. Increasingly, the tasks needing to be coordinated are located in different firms, different functions, and different countries. Coordinating these activities requires planning operations (manufacturing, transportation, etc.) and inventory, timely information transfer, and the management of incentives, contracts and cultural differences. The module first covers operational coordination within a firm and expands to include inter-functional, inter-firm, and inter-national coordination. The module finishes with a discussion of the role of supply chain intermediaries.
