After playing a few rounds of FreeGame and reading GPT’s feedback on your moves, you will have internalized a new, much more effective way of thinking about the various options available to you when faced with a strategic decision, allowing you to choose based on far more concrete and substantial considerations. Additionally, you will have learned the fundamentals required to apply the 6C Model as a strategic decision-support tool in real-world scenarios you will encounter.

This Lecture summarizes the key themes of your learning in this course, from the concept of strategy to the combined use of the 6C Model and Artificial Intelligence.
