Description Australia's export opportunities have yet to be fully realised. In other words, of all the firms that could be considered as having an export potential, only a very small percentage of them actually do (export). This unit teaches students about the management perspectives and the operational requirements needed for a successful export initiative. Specific topics include strategic intent, capability assessment, information gathering, export entry models evaluation, market mix factors, risk management, export finance, logistics and sales management. The overriding aim of the unit is to enable students to be confident in working in an international business environment and to seek out and undertake management and operational tasks necessary to the global development of the firm.
