The goal of this course is to empower students with current, cutting-edge insights on the external threats and opportunities presented by technology and insurgent forces in healthcare, and how incumbents can successfully respond to these threats and opportunities in a COVID and post-COVID world. My hope is that you will be inspired to understand and embrace disruption, and to become an innovator, an influencer, and a force in creating a new and better healthcare world. (EMHA-EL)
