Microsoft Reverse Case Study (e-book)

Digital Business Case Studies and Solutions by Gregory John Lee and Vernon Timothy Thaver is a remarkable compendium of case studies in the domain of digital business and digitalization, as well as a varied collection of challenges to the readers and reflections by the authors on those challenges.

In this case, we discuss Microsoft as an example of digital maturity. The case is presented as a ‘reverse case’, i.e., the reader is presented with a short introduction, the theoretical framework (in this case, a digital maturity framework), and a reading list; the reader is then challenged to essentially write the case with the digital maturity framework in mind. The reflection is contained in the Instructor’s Supplement available only to instructors.
