Digital changed the world, businesses were turned upside down and COVID-19 in 2020 has accelerated this trend. Consumers have unprecedented access to information and services that change how they are seen as customers. Digital disruption is all about how this has happened, the winners and losers, the new rules of the game. Digital transformation is all about how individuals, firms and governments are responding, changing their habits, ways of working and expectations of any relationship. These are radical shifts that everyone needs to understand and continually anticipate in the second half of the digitally exponential chess board. All 12 lessons in the course includes a handy worksheet that you can download and which summarises the key lessons for your application and future reference.

In this course I'll be teaching you about the following;

  • The winners and losers of digital disruption; Kodak, Instagram, Nokia, Waze and more

  • Over The Top business models and the utilities they disintermediate

  • Blockchain and bitcoin; how it works and why it is a threat

  • Self-disruption through internal innovation and employee incentivisation

  • The FNB Codefest which was featured as a case study in Harvard Business Review

  • Customer-centric design thinking and why big companies need it

  • Principles and stages of exponential growth curves

In this course I’ll be engaging you 1 on 1, as well as providing you with visual insights and downloadable resources to support and embed your learning. We can also engage around the course content and once you’ve enrolled you’ll have access to it as I keep it updated. I’ve researched these topics in my phd, written extensively about them on my blog and spoken about them at international conferences. I’ve also had to adapt to them in my own life in the same way that you probably have. I look forward to seeing you in the lessons and please remember to rate and review the course. It's a privilege to be part of your learning journey.
