Very good information in this course. Professors Raj and Deepak did a very good job oe explaining key concepts, then backing them up with real-world examples. Made the concepts in the course very clear. This course shed a lot of light on hoe disruptive models come about, how a disruptive business model can usurp existing models and how to deal with it if you are an "existing model". Thanks for a great course and great information.

This course is highly commendable for all people with an intent for or already in leadership in an organization.

This course offers a view on strategy from a technology management standpoint. The course content is very interesting. I think the older videos could be improved for example text on slides could be shown longer and the ddistracting music could be removed.
