Market Foundations: Supply, Demand & Price Dynamics
Establishes the core microeconomic toolkit every manager needs before tackling macro forces, labor, or global markets. Students learn how prices form, how markets clear, and how to translate supply-and-demand mechanics directly into competitive pricing and revenue decisions.
- 1.1Supply & Demand Mechanics for ManagersIncluded
- 1.2Elasticity & Revenue StrategyIncluded
- 1.3Market Structures & Competitive Pricing PowerIncluded
Macroeconomic Forces: Inflation, Monetary Policy & Economic Indicators
Equips executives to read the macroeconomic environment as fluently as they read a financial statement. Students learn to interpret inflation dynamics, decode central-bank signaling, and use leading, lagging, and coincident indicators to time capital allocation and operational decisions.
- 2.1Inflation: Causes, Costs & Business StrategyIncluded
- 2.2Monetary Policy & the Business CycleIncluded
- 2.3Reading the Economic Dashboard: Key Indicators for ExecutivesIncluded
Labor Markets & Workforce Economics
Applies supply-and-demand logic — built in Module 1 — to the market for talent. Students analyze wage determination, human-capital investment, and structural labor shifts to make smarter hiring, compensation, and workforce-planning decisions. This module also bridges into macro forces covered in Module 2 by examining how monetary policy and business cycles affect labor availability and wage pressure.
- 3.1Labor Market Dynamics: Supply, Demand & Wage DeterminationIncluded
- 3.2Compensation Strategy, Human Capital & ProductivityIncluded
- 3.3Workforce Planning in a Changing Labor LandscapeIncluded
Global Markets, Trade & International Economic Forces
Builds on the domestic market and macro foundations of the first three modules and extends the analytical lens to the global economy. Students learn to evaluate trade policy, manage currency and geopolitical risk, and identify growth opportunities in emerging markets — translating global macro forces into international business strategy.
- 4.1International Trade: Comparative Advantage & Trade PolicyIncluded
- 4.2Currency, Exchange Rates & Global Financial RiskIncluded
- 4.3Global Supply Chains, Emerging Markets & Geopolitical RiskIncluded
Free Markets, Wealth Creation & Ethical Economic Frameworks
Examines the philosophical and practical foundations of free-market economics, entrepreneurship-driven wealth creation, and ethical frameworks — including Christian Economics — that situate business activity within a broader moral order. Students learn to build business models that are both economically powerful and values-driven, integrating ethical reasoning into strategic decisions rather than treating it as an afterthought.
- 5.1Free Market Economics: Principles, Power & LimitsIncluded
- 5.2Wealth Creation: Entrepreneurship, Innovation & CapitalIncluded
- 5.3Christian Economics: Faith, Ethics & the Purpose of BusinessIncluded
Poverty, Inequality & Shared Value Business Strategy
Synthesizes the entire course by applying market, macro, labor, global, and ethical frameworks to the challenges of poverty and inequality. Students move from diagnosis to strategy — designing business models and organizational practices that create genuine economic value for underserved populations while remaining commercially sustainable. This capstone module integrates all prior learning and produces actionable shared-value strategies.
- 6.1The Economics of Poverty: Causes, Measurement & EvidenceIncluded
- 6.2Business as a Force for Poverty ReductionIncluded
- 6.3Creating Shared Economic Value: Strategy for Sustainable ImpactIncluded

David DiNatale
If you've ever sat in a strategy meeting, stared at an economic headline, and felt the gap between what you knew and what you needed to know — this course was built for that moment.
Most of us who lead organizations were never given a complete economic toolkit. We learned pricing by trial and error. We learned what the Fed does when inflation hit. We learned about labor markets when we couldn't fill a role or couldn't afford to keep one. The frameworks were always available — they just weren't assembled in a way that spoke to the decisions we actually make. That's precisely what this curriculum is designed to fix.
What I've built here is the course I wished existed when I was navigating the intersection of economic theory and real-world business pressure. It starts at the foundation — supply, demand, elasticity, market structure — but it doesn't linger there. It moves quickly into the macroeconomic forces that shape the environment every business operates in: inflation dynamics, monetary policy signals, the economic indicators that precede shifts in consumer behavior, credit conditions, and hiring. Then it goes where most courses don't: deep into labor market economics, global trade theory, exchange rate risk, geopolitical exposure, and finally, the ethical and philosophical dimensions of what markets are actually for.
That last part matters to me. The module on Christian Economics isn't a detour — it's an invitation to think seriously about the moral architecture of business, the purpose of wealth creation, and the responsibility of the firm in a world where poverty and inequality are not abstract data points but lived realities. I bring the same rigor to that conversation that I bring to a supply-demand diagram or a central bank policy analysis, because I believe business leaders deserve frameworks that are both intellectually honest and morally serious.
If you're ready to think at the level the moment demands — to lead with economic literacy, strategic clarity, and a values-grounded sense of purpose — I'd be honored to be your guide through this material. Let's get to work.
