The Industrialist’s Dilemma: How to Adapt to a Changing Landscape
96686617
Online
Overview
We are moving from an industrial economy to a digital one. Can mature organizations survive using the same systems that made them successful, or do those very systems put them at risk? Startups, on the other hand, are not limited by legacy organizational baggage. With access to top talent and little government oversight, they can aggressively apply new solutions to legacy industries that haven’t changed in decades, including retail, life sciences, transportation, healthcare, and hospitality.
This course uses case studies to explore how the world’s best startups are taking on the world’s biggest companies, and how those large companies are adapting to survive. Ensure that your company isn’t overtaken by an emerging startup by learning how to prepare for this shifting landscape.
