Firms must continuously evolve and adapt in rapidly changing competitive environments. While investments in new technology are important, this is not the only aspect of successful digital transformation. It requires an understanding of the implications for the firm's products and services as well as its business model, culture, and operations. In this course we examine some of the implications for organizations as they continuously evolve and transform themselves to become and remain responsive and competitive.

Very easy bird course, easy 95+. No final exam, only few projects. Just need 1-2 hours per week to complete the discussion/assignment.

Just too much content, but for an online class, I really enjoyed the formatting. Not to mention that the course deliverables were clear.

Easy class with straightforward assignments. Useful information and actually relevant today. One of the better online courses I've taken. Just ensure you use the rubrics for every assignment and you should do well. Maybe wouldn't recommend for a coop term but works fine for an academic term.
