Program Professional Framework
Efficient Strategies in the Age of Digital Disruption
Program Overview
Digital disruption has compressed the life span of business models and rewards organisations that can sense change early and reallocate resources quickly. This programme helps leaders formulate efficient strategies for disrupted markets: understanding disruptive innovation and platform economics, assessing their organisation's exposure, choosing between defending, transforming and creating new digital businesses, and building the capabilities and operating model to execute. It uses scenario planning, digital business model analysis and portfolio thinking, with cases from Gulf banking, retail, logistics and government services.
