We've built this podcast on top of the ideas taught in Professor Clayton M. Christensen's signature course at the Harvard Business School, Building and Sustaining a Successful Enterprise (BSSE). This episode opens with Professor Christensen talking about the purpose of the BSSE course, and then transitions into a Q&A session with a group of alumni of the course, ranging from recent graduates to alumni who left HBS fifteen years ago. Topics include making predictions about the future of the electric car, how to handle acquisitions, how to think about being disrupted -- even when you are the disruptor!, using theory to make better decisions in your personal life, and the power of a good theory and common language.
