International strategiesAn international strategy has to be tailor-made
according to the vision, the mission, the values and the priorities of the institution there is not a single strategy that can fit more than
one institution It is a means to an end It has to support the institution fulfil its mission and
reach its strategic objectivesThe leadership needs to make strategic choices prioritise what is strategic for the whole institution

International strategies/2An international strategy has to be an integral
aspect of the overall vision and strategy of the institution It can be included in the main strategy document It can be a different document -> synergy Reaching the widest possible consensus is extremely
important The strategy has to be discussed with the main
internal and external stakeholders The plan has to be carried out

International strategies/3Different internal motivations and perceived
benefits different views on internationalisation different stages of advancement in schools
and departmentsThe leadership should choose between a single rationale underpinning the strategy of
the entire institution Incorporating different rationales to represent
different interests
