First module of COTRUGLI Business School’s Executive MBA generation 2010 in Zagreb gathers around 70 participants. For this occasion, Mr. Anthony J. Evans, PhD, delivered Managerial Economics module from January 29-31.

Anthony J. Evans is an Assistant Professor at ESCP-EAP European School of Management, London. He received his MA and Ph.D. in Economics from George Mason University, USA, and a BA from the University of Liverpool, UK. Most of his applied research focuses on the intersection between institutions, constitutions and organizations, including “Cultural Theory”, Market-Based Management, and the epistemic and cultural foundations of social transitions.

The aim of the first half of the module Managerial Economics is to equip students with knowledge of fundamental principles of micro and macroeconomics and their relevance to management decision-making. The course covers many theories and approaches to enable students to appreciate the impact of economic forces on functional and strategic managerial decisions in contemporary organization situations. Second half of the module aims to equip students with a basic understanding of fundamental techniques in quantitative and statistical analysis and their application to practical business situations.
