Digital Business Strategy

Virginia examines digital strategy through platforms, competition and the ability to capture value. Assessing current capabilities connects with choosing a desired position and the resources needed to reach it. It suits learners who want to justify a digital initiative from a business problem rather than begin with a technology preference.

What you will learn

• Assess digital transformation readiness.
• Examine platform and competitive dynamics.
• Connect capabilities with value creation.

Who this suits

Beginners interested in the business implications of digital change.

Before you enroll

Frameworks organize a decision; they do not prove that a strategy will succeed. Check the evidence, assumptions, time horizon and alternatives behind each recommendation. Use public or fictional company information and distinguish a plausible business case from a verified result.

Coursera offers paid enrollment or subscription access. Check the enrollment screen for assessment and certificate terms, trials and any financial-aid options. Provider access terms can change; review them before paying.

Put it into practice

Compare a fictional digital initiative with a simpler operational alternative, explaining the customer value and capabilities needed before recommending either.
