Final Presentation & Lecture of Prof. David Day
On December 3rd and 4th, a special lecture was held in the Business School on the Humanities and Social Sciences Campus located in Myeongnyun-dong, Jongno-Gu. This lecture was given by Prof. David Day, an international lawyer specializing in negotiations. Prof. Day teaches at Hawaii University and is currently teaching two undergraduate courses and one Asia MBA course for the fall semester 2009. During the special lecture, SKKU Business School students gave presentations on how to do business in Asian countries based on the knowledge they had acquired. The presentation replaced the final lecture of the semester and all 100 students (including 20 foreign students) who took the three courses presented international business negotiation cases applicable not only to America but also to Asian countries. Especially for December 4th, Jo Byung Doo, president of Dong Joo Co., Kim Ik Rae, vice president of Deloitte Anjin LLC, Lee Dae Hyun, president of SeoSeo Galbe, Jo Young Gwon, vice president of Financial News and other alumni were present to encourage the students. A group of 4~5 students compared and analyzed each of the Asian countries and the U.S and presented global etiquette and negotiation methods for successful business and cultural and historical differences that need to be understood through various visual aids such as movies, pictures and statistics. For example, they presented that in the case of Korea, the historical background and issues with Japan and China should be dealt with and in the U.S., when they have important business negotiations, they prefer logical and direct speech. While lecturing during the semester, Prof. Day was impressed by the outstanding English ability of students, especially the bachelor’s degree freshman. He also was encouraged by the active participation of students offering their innovative and creative ideas. He added that these students are capable of working for not only domestic companies but also global companies like Apple and Google.
Hong, Joo Hee (08), a Business bachelor’s degree student who has been taking the course, said although she had taken a lot of lectures in English since she entered the school, she never had a lecture with such sense of realism and practicality like Prof. Day’s. Lee Sang Gun, a professional administrator with experience in the U.S., appreciated the help of many alumni and support from school that enabled inviting foreign professors such as Prof. Day. SKKU Business Department is now inviting many professors from English-speaking countries like the U.S., New Zealand and Australia. He also asked for the consistent interest and support from many audience members. Adding that, SKKU has a bright future in many aspects and the leap toward global Top Business School of SKKU Business School is drawing much attention.
