So you can't look to them for answers. They don't have answers. @Tim - It’s my impression that most of the business staff and management have not understood online or the changes in the audience since Day One, and they’re not getting any better, even in this crisis.

We can and do tell our students all about "business", past, present and what we think will be the future. But what these guys never seem to do is give anyone an idea of what they think "business" might be and how "business" can make "money". Unless this nettle is grasped firmly and discussed/researched/prognosticated/theorised there won't be any workflows or differences in language. Are they keeping some secrets back, or do they just not know? My guess is the latter.
