The idea that digital technology triggers profound change in companies is largely accepted. There is indeed no question that the digital world is profoundly changing business life. Everyone is now on the same page. But with the digital world come a lot of misconceptions and buzzwords. You can no longer get by with these commonplaces or general ideas. You need to gain a detailed understanding of the main new management paradigms: new marketing approaches, the role of data in data-driven management, large businesses’ struggle to innovate, etc. This will give you precise insight into changes at work. Without precision, it is difficult to understand. Without understanding, it is impossible to act.

Retail and the sharing economy are emblematic of markets where specific transformations are unfolding. This module will tell you how.

LVMH! Huawei! Energysquare! Three companies in very different industries: luxury goods, telecommunications, energy. Three companies with very different sizes, histories and DNA. And yet, they all share the same objective: to innovate and change, and so to remain or become leaders in their respective markets. The multiple questions that this raises for them warrant your close attention. In this capstone module, you will study each of these three companies and will in turn be an analyst, a consultant and a manager, depending on the assignment. You will use the knowledge acquired in the three MOOCs of this specialization to complete your assignments: analyse a digital business process, define and formulate a strategic shift, apply the principles of growth hacking, and more.
