Sustaining Competitive Advantage Through Strategy

This Wharton course moves beyond one-off tactics to teach sustainable competitive positioning. You'll gain frameworks for evaluating your organization's strategic fit—examining internal capabilities, external dynamics, and the interplay between them. The focus extends to understanding how competitors' moves ripple through your market and identifying what organizational barriers might block strategic change.

Best for leaders and strategists working to redesign or validate their business model. The emphasis is on assessment and implementation: how to actually execute the strategies you design.

About this course

Maintaining a competitive advantage takes more than great timing or a single solution. Sustainable advantage requires a well-designed and well-executed strategy. This course was created to give you the tools and frameworks you need to develop and execute a successful strategy.

You’ll learn how to evaluate your own strategy, as well as how to locate sources of potential competitive advantage from a perspective that encompasses the internal, external, and dynamic fit of your strategy. You’ll also learn how to enhance your ability to assess the strategic impact of the moves of your competitors and how to maintain competitive advantage, understand the general drivers that create and sustain competitive advantage, and how to identify organizational barriers to change.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to assess and redesign your current strategy and develop plans for effective implementation to give your firm a competitive advantage.
