This course focuses on designing strategies from the market back to create, deliver, and sustain customer value in an industrial setting. To do so, this course views marketing as both a general management responsibility (building capabilities and firm processes) and an organizational orientation (culture and structure). Furthermore, the course will pay attention to the tactical decisions (e.g. sales, advertising, pricing) or formal models of marketing decision-making (e.g. forecasting or product diffusion models). The level of analysis will be on the business unit and its network of channels, customer relationships, and alliances.
