The Agile Strategy course aims to equip MBA students with the skills and frameworks needed to thrive in dynamic and uncertain business environments. The course provides a comprehensive understanding of agile strategies by blending theoretical foundations with practical insights and real-world case studies. The objectives of the course are to help students develop strategic flexibility and the ability to anticipate and respond effectively to change.
First, students will explore the origins and evolution of agile strategies by studying foundational concepts such as the Nokia case and temporary competitive advantages. Second, the course will focus on how organizations can respond to external market dynamics through agile principles, including cross-sectoral competition, fostering experimentation, aligning metrics with entrepreneurial growth, focusing on solutions over products, building robust networks, practicing healthy disengagement, and promoting systematic innovation.
The second part of the course will address the control perspectives that support strategy implementation, enhancing students’ understanding of how financial insights and performance measurement systems contribute to agile strategic management.
Throughout the course, students will engage with real-world examples and case studies to reinforce these concepts. Overall, the course also emphasizes the importance of aligning strategic agility with Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals, preparing students to lead adaptable and responsible organizations.
