The intro slides to my fall 2009 MGBL course on global strategy. Idea here is to start the students thinking differently. The metaphor of maps makes sense as a way to move them from seeing the world in the conventional way (i.e., Mercator projection, NA-centred) to a different way. All map images found online...probably not properly credited yet, for which I apologize. I'm still new to this.
