By: Woodbury University And so it is with Angelo Camillo, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Strategic Management in Woodbury University (http://woodbury.edu/) Then, the June 23 Brexit referendum happened. With voters in the United Kingdom narrowly approving a measure to withdraw from the European Union, it was time for a pivot. While researching two books -- Comparative Strategic Management of the G7 Multinationals and Are Business Schools Preparing Students for the Real World? – Dr. Camillo expanded his investigation to include the upside and the downside of Brexit on both the U.K. and the European Union. "The fundamental goal of my research is unchanged, even if Brexit has profoundly altered the economic and political environment," While the jury is out on Brexit's impact on EU member nations, Dr. Camillo says the consequences for students – from the U.K. and elsewhere – is already "causing a lot of concern." "The uncertainty is troubling for both British and foreign students enrolled in U.K. universities, and that's especially true for business majors seeking employment," In the wake of Brexit, Dr. Camillo sees "great opportunity" "Brexit will of course shape my research into the G7, although it won't be clear for some time how much the European and British economies will change," he said, noting that the U.K. has yet to invoke Article 50, formally triggering the separation. "For companies doing business in the European Union, it's vital to strategically investigate and compare the firms' distinctivecapabilities or weaknesses, especially if they positively contribute to the economy of the nation in which they operate. "My research is exploring the underlying philosophy that makes these countries economically advanced compared to others," Dr. Camillo said. "My theory is that some of the key success factors of the leading firms in these seven countries have a direct correlation with the G7's success overall. But there's no question that Brexit reshuffles the deck where these success factors are concerned." During "whatever is left of my free time," he said he is providing pro bono consulting to Borgo Delle Fonti, an Italian hospitality start-up committed to doing business with the U.S.: http://www.borgodellefonti.it/ At Woodbury, Dr. Camillo teaches courses in Strategy, Global Enterprise Management, Business Ethics, Organizational Behavior, and special topics in Hospitality Entrepreneurship and Business Development.
