Course Overview

Vendors sell open innovation and digital product strategy as a product; it behaves in practice as a change programme. Boards are asking for measurable returns from product strategy, not demonstrations. Progress on this strand of digital and data-driven work is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. The level assumes working familiarity with the transformation programme but no prior formal training in open innovation and digital product strategy. It treats the digital and data-driven work discipline as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of product strategy is examined, not just described. Comparative studies of open innovation and digital product strategy across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what product strategy has actually achieved. Participants leave with a plan for this area of digital and data-driven work sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.
