We have new technical programs emerging regularly.  These programs are typically focused on emerging trends and fields (recent examples include data science, intelligent systems, cybersecurity, big data systems, and so on). What we often seem to forget, however, is that technology is used in a context. Communication and coordination between the engineering function and the portions of the business relying on technology are required in order to ensure the needs of the organization are fulfilled. What I really like about this program at Lviv Business School is that it’s one of the few programs in the world that focuses on providing the skills and knowledge to participants that are necessary to take strategic advantage of technology. The impact of this program has been evident, it’s personally been very rewarding to be involved in a program that’s having such a noticeable impact on the region.
