,Week 1: Introduction class
What is corporate strategy?
Corporate vs. business strategy
The corporate growth trap
‘We must expand, we must purse size, we must grow at any costs, because if we are
bigger, we’ll be more profitable’
There is no systematic link between the size and profitability of a multi-business firm
Corporate growth aims at increasing corporate profits and profitability not at increasing
corporate sales ‘per se’

2. How?
3. Why?

stores
Backward VE: Total: from oil distribution to oil
exploration
