This course is about firms’ strategy for value creation and value capture for sustainable superior competitive positions and achievement of long-term profitability. The business environment of the 21st century is undergoing radical change. Companies now compete concurrently in domestic, global, and digital markets. Such markets are often characterized by accelerating technological change, rising customer expectations, intense competition, and transitory competitive advantage. Accordingly, the course focuses on exploring theories, frameworks, and models for understanding the rules of the game in these different, but concurrent, business contexts. It adopts an explicitly integrative approach, building on knowledge in other areas of management.
