Companies often consider growth in terms of marginal improvements to the core business that keep pace with the industry. Few understand how to create growth by finding entirely new businesses at the edge of an industry others haven’t yet discovered. That type of growth requires a different manager, mindset, and culture. This course teaches students to adopt a flexible and creative mindset, embrace constant and frequent business changes, and recognize opportunities before others. Students will learn how to identify a pending disruption, how to react faster and more decisively, and how to shift from a machine bureaucracy to a user and people-centric organization. The course emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach to learning and consists of live lectures, private case studies, guest speakers, and small-team collaboration exercises. Created for managers and business leaders looking to rapidly, yet responsibly, increase their organization’s performance and output, this course will help them better identify new opportunities to transform their business.
All students will receive a discount on the book: The Silicon Valley Model-Management for Entrepreneurship, 2024
