How to Create Value in the Digital World
The business world has changed immeasurably over the past few decades. Despite the surging interest in digital technologies and internet-based commerce, one thing that has not changed is the importance of an organisation understanding its environment and finding ways to create value in that environment (whether that’s in a traditional market or a modern business ecosystem). As such, it’s more important than ever before to understand market disruption, the role of digital technology in business, and how companies can be organised into mutually beneficial business ecosystems.
In this course, we examine exactly what it means to be part of a business ecosystem. We also look at how organisations can create digital business models, what it means to be a disruptor and what factors make up the crucial difference between an organisation thriving or floundering in the digital age. Lastly, we’ll cover the importance of using appropriate operating models and ensuring all employees are digitally adept.
