 Hi, my name is Ilan Oshry, I'm a professor at the Graduate School of Management at the University of Oakland Business School. My course is about business strategies based on unique capabilities that firms need to develop. The real challenge for many companies still in current economies is that they need to differentiate themselves from the crowd. Like New Zealand, most businesses are considering what is it that they have as an advantage. The moment I'm working on three streams of research. One is around digital platforms, the other one is on sharing economy, and the third one is on intelligent technologies. The three together are coming into a perfect storm for some industries. The most exciting thing for me when I'm teaching MBAs is the knowledge and experience which is brought into the class and being shared between the students. In addition to this, the heart beat of New Zealand is actually here in Oakland. So coming to our business school means that you will get connected with the business community in New Zealand and benefit a lot from networking with alike as well as with opportunities in the city.
