Economist Education

Whether it’s America’s foreign policy or AI’s impacts, following global affairs can be dizzying. The first task for anyone trying to keep a level head is deciding what’s important and how it changes (or doesn’t) the big picture. The next, not least for business leaders on Economist Education’s geopolitics course, is analysing what that means for their organisation, and acting. The programme aims to help—and thankfully, our executive students tell us it does. The approach is to focus on fundamentals, not fleeting headlines, in materials written and recently updated by The Economist’s journalists, who also appear in videos and podcasts alongside other experts. Our accomplished students discuss global issues in online forums, and are prompted to consider how to apply what they learn. That could be in anything from investment decisions to supply-chain management. In case this sounds useful to you, a new run of the course starts soon.

What’s the point of me writing this post? After all, AI could scribble something for me. It’s a version of a dilemma now faced by anyone who writes at work. Human, take heart! Only you know what you want to achieve in a piece of writing—its purpose. Only you know your message, and how to deliver it in your own unique voice. And only if you do that will your work stand out from the AI slop washing through business. This post’s purpose is to introduce you to Economist Education’s course, Business writing and storytelling. Created by journalists at The Economist, the programme shows you how to write with impact and style, and includes hints on using AI without giving up your voice. The last run of the course in 2026 starts soon. So hurry: click below to learn more. https://lnkd.in/ehjdJpmG
