Many world mission leaders agree one of the most effective avenues for 21st century outreach will be through sustainable businesses that focus on living out Christian principles and bettering the communities they influence. Business leaders have a great opportunity to be distinct in their approach to business, people and societies.
Cornerstone University's Professional and Graduate Studies program believes that you can make a difference in the global community and has created the Global Business Experience in order to develop you into an knowledgeable and effective leader.
The mission of the Global Business Experience is to transform society through sustainable kingdom business.
This is accomplished through short international journeys during which students interact with kingdom companies and social enterprise, develop their culutral intelligence, and experience societies being transformed.
The Global Business Experience enables each participant to:
- DISCOVER the ways our world is changing through the integration of economics, education, social and spiritual transformation
- EXPLORE your kingdom fit and mission in our changing world
- INTERACT with international leaders who are creating change in their world
- DEVELOP cultural intelligence as you are exposed to the global community
- CREATE a personal plan to transform your self, family, work, and community
Four locations are visited annually: Israel, China, South Africa, and Czech Republic.
In each location, participants are encouraged to look at the society as a continually transforming community which is shaped through spiritual, economic, social, and educational influences. The students specifically observe how each of the four factors interact and influence each other and how the society adjusts in response.
The Global Business Experience offers each individual the keys to impact the culture for the kingdom through professional training. If you want to be an effective 21st century business leader, the Global Business Experience is for you.
