PMBA 8353 Course Description:

This course is a holistic course drawing on all areas of Information Technology. It leverages the in-depth understanding of Technology that MSIS students possess and transforms such knowledge into a new skill set of strategic leadership development at the level of the firm, economy and society. It will enable the student to assess and respond to challenges in their current work environment as well as develop strategic leadership capacity going into the future. Case studies and readings will familiarize students with literature on rapid technology-led transformations such as Schumpeterian theories of ‘creative destruction’ and derivative theories of technological restructuring at the scale of an industry such as disruptive technology/innovation. Students will be engaged in a discussion of multi-firm cases of strategic innovation and will examine policy decisions by the firm and various ethical dilemmas engendered by technological changes of the last four decades.

The successful candidate should possess a Master’s or advanced degree, and/or equivalent degree/credentials in Information Systems, Computer Information Systems, Business Analytics, or related field. Demonstrated prior teaching experience of Information Systems, Computer Information Systems, or Business Analytics, and related courses at either the undergraduate or graduate level is required.
