Ville's notes: This module will be co-taught with Dr. Neeta Nagar from Accenture. Neeta will lead us to the fascinating and very timely world of business agility. Covid-19 pandemic has forced us all to rethink our priorities in business model development. Neeta will show not only how we can survive the crisis, but turn it into a brighter future!
The first HBR article emphasizes the relevance of putting resilience first in your business models. It may sound trivial (especially now that we are all aware of the massive impact of the Covid-19 pandemic), but the mindset change from efficiency-first to resilience-first is not easy!
Select also one of the two other HBR articles!
