About this course

The history of strategy has roots in military planning, focused on predicting the future based on historic trend lines. Strategy was issued from the C-suite with the rest of the organization responsible for execution. In an era of uncertainty and volatility this model no longer meets the needs of today's organizations. Instead, leading strategists suggest that an agile approach to strategy is needed; one in which a roadmap and navigational tools are essential to adapt and respond to emerging conditions. This course equips students with new lens by which to view strategy development.Students will learn how to think strategically, focused more on questions than answers. They will be equipped with the tools and techniques to discern an organization's capabilities and its unique value proposition. They will learn how to evaluate competitive dynamics and how to assess externalities and potential disruptors. They also will be prepared to contribute in a meaningful way to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of their organization's strategy.
