About the Course

The world of business strategy is in transition. What used to work doesn't anymore -- not necessarily. This course prepares you to think strategically in an age when companies like Apple, Google, and Microsoft have become more valuable (in market cap terms) than companies like Exxon. Today, business value and competitive advantage arise more often from consumer perceptions of what is "cool" than from physical assets or economies of scale. In this course -- the first of a three-course specialization tailored specifically for the age of creativity and innovation -- you will gear up for the challenges of strategy formulation and implementation in a 21st century business. After taking the course, you'll be able to: - Explain why "doing" strategy is considered "the high point of managerial activity" (Mintzberg); - Recognize and avoid the old, tired ideas about strategy that are still out there, so you can adopt fresher, better ideas; - Point out how doing strategy has changed because of advancing technology and globalization; - Prepare for the Capstone Project for the Strategic Management and Innovation Specialization...

It is a great course that simplifies how we should think about a business (the start and the long term visions) it also reorders our way of thinking about how firms work and overcome their obstacles.

This course provided a powerful blend of strategic thinking, real-world application, and creative problem-solving—enhancing my ability to have a profound understanding of the function of the strategy.

Much of the course relies on external content that is not maintained. The result is that you are being redirected to external content that no longer exists, or is hosted on sites that get blocked by your browser over SSL / security concerns, or is inaccessible due to the content being hosted by gated sites requiring you to pay to log in. This content being inaccessible has a significant detrimental impact on the value of this course.

Around 80% of the links given to third-party websites such as Forbes, Economic times, Youtube and more are unavailable or removed—also, some links allow you to buy a subscription to read those articles. The instructors need to update this outdated course and put some effort into writing the content on the course not redirecting to third-party websites where they have no control over the availability of content.

A bit light in terms of content, this probably could have been condensed down into 2 lessons.

The course is very interesting but there is a problem with the quizzes, it doesn't accept correct questions. If needed I can provide a screen shot of the problem in one of the quizzes. Hope that all this will be fixed and I'll be able to take the course again.
