KurzbeschreibungThis course focuses on the sources of innovation (with a specific focus on digital technologies), the tools and techniques that organizations deploy to innovate routinely, and the strategic implications of technical change at different levels of analysis: individuals, firms and whole ecosystems.
LernzielThis course intends to enable all students to:

- Acquire and understand the basic jargon, concepts and methods necessary to discuss, in a precise and concise manner, innovation processes and their outcomes at different levels of analysis

- Analyze the differences between individual and organizational decision processes and their innovative outcomes

- Evaluate critically the potential of different (digital) technologies to impact business organizations.
InhaltOrganizations and people are faced with a fundamental decision: they have to allocate resources between well-known tasks that reliably generate positive results; or explore new ways of doing things, new technologies, products and services. The latter is a high risk choice. Its rewards can be high, but the chances of success are small. How do firms organize to take these decisions? What kind of management skills are necessary to take them? What kind of tools and methods are deployed to sustain managerial decision-making in highly volatile environments? These are the central questions on which this course focuses, relying on a combination of lectures, case-based discussion, and guest speakers.
