Impact from Digital Transformation: Full course from Coursera

What's inside

Syllabus

A glimpse on what´s to come

Welcome to our course Impact from Digital Transformation! Let's begin with an introduction and take a look at the practical issues which are good to know about.

The Why, the How and the What of Digital Transformation

In order to understand Digital Transformation, we need to understand the disruptive process. But why does it happen, how does it happen - and what does actually happen?

A useful model for handling it

In order to be able to do Digital Transformation we need a target to head for. That target needs to be related to the evolving future industrial landscape - not the business landscape we do have today. So therefore, we need a new map to navigate upon and that map will be developed in this module.

Not just handling but doing Digital Transformation

When we have the new map of the future, we can set targets and take actions in order to get there. In this module we cover how to set a target and what actions matters.

Once we are moving again

In this module, we cover how the situation might look after this process and gradually start to structure our learnings.

When here, you might be the only one who can find this treasure

In this module, we extend our learning about how to handle Digital Transformation by looking at how others around us have handled it. This module also includes the final exam.
