Competitive Strategy

Posted by on Mar 4, 2010 in Life in Saudia | 0 comments

The new semester had started for my Competitive Intelligence study at OUM - I have to take two subjects for this semester which are Competitive Strategy and Macroeconomics .

As an online student- not being able to attend to the seminar in MY, I had no choice but to find alternative ways to understand the course so I turned to podcast and alhamdulillah I found one.

It is based on a taught course by Professor Mark Juliano (I think he’s a telco veteran!)  in the University of Carnegie Mellon University  in the MISM masters program. Topics include idea generation, company formation, funding, writing a business plan, sales & marketing, IPOs and acquisitions, and giving an investor presentation

It  is quite popular in the internet according Professor Juliano’s blog

The initial podcast episode was created in January 2007. Since then, the episodes have been downloaded/listened to over 40,000 times, and average about 1,500 downloaded episodes per week. I’m proud to say that I have now had many more students take the podcast course than in my total tenure of live teaching at Carnegie Mellon. My goal was always to reach as many people as possible. Isn’t podcasting great!
