Abstract

Many scholars have criticized business education for its lack of adequate awareness of global issues. To address this, we have designed a curricular innovation initiative to introduce a special topic course, called Business Negotiations and Model Diplomacy Simulations. The course is built around the Model Diplomacy program designed by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), and aims to enhance soft skills, global citizenship and critical thinking. In this paper, we present the rationale, relevance and a step-by-step approach to designing and incorporating this simulation to help business schools innovate their curricula to provide their students with a competitive edge
