Digital Transformation I/O: Recent Episodes

View Details

Very often in university courses, in business and in the media the narrative regarding the emergence of the digital economy describes a transition from the industrial to the information age. In that narrative the digital revolution is part of the advent of the information age and it brings about such radical change that invalidates almost all of the principles of the old industrial economy. The story goes that old forms die and new ones emerge, that everything changes, that age-old constraints disappear and that we're only at the dawn of a bright new day. As tempting as this representation of the major transformations of our world may be, it is in fact an oversimplification and, to be honest, completely wrong.

What happens when you apply digital innovation to a course about digital innovation? That was the weird question that emerged in my mind while developing course content for Solvay Executive Education's Advanced Master in Innovation and Strategic Management. This podcast is the result of some work inspired by design thinking in which I sought to imagine how we could enhance the learning experience of students by giving them additional content that focuses on facets of what is discussed in class and how that could be done in a way that is convenient for them as well as other people interested in the topic of digital innovation and digital transformation.
