Description

Introduction

Corporate leaders are worried, as businesses face unprecedented challenges and opportunities. The digitization of industries has disrupted traditional profit avenues and has made it increasingly difficult for businesses to grow.

The gravity of the situation is evident from these statistics:

80% of CEOs fear their business models are unsustainable in the digital revolution

94% of CEOs are dissatisfied with their innovation initiatives

85% of digital investments have yielded no or negative 'Economic Value Added'

90% of corporate startups have not succeeded

Even as we strive to stabilize the present, we must prepare for the future and reimagine our approach to strategy, innovation, and investment.

Every business can emulate the exponential growth seen by giants like Amazon, Apple, and Alibaba. To do so, they need to:

Allocate resources towards digital business models and platform strategies

Re-engineer their operations

Innovate and implement in novel ways

After spending a year studying successful business models in our hyper-connected world, I've determined how traditional organizations can adopt and adapt these models.

This user-friendly online video course guides you through the process, backed by an exhaustive analysis of the link between business models and financial performance, case studies from industry leaders, and proven methodologies and frameworks.
