STUDENTS profile

THE NEXT-GEN OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION LEADERS

The program is designed for mid-career and senior level professionals currently with management responsibilities, or seasoned individual contributors planning to transition into management roles.

The program is grounded in digital tech and in practical innovation methods (design thinking, lean/ scrum, agile...) as drivers of positive transformation and bottom line performance improvement – but technical training and experience are not required. You’ll learn what you need to know at an executive level, to think strategically about how to apply current and emerging technologies to reshape business practices.

  • Department Heads and C-Suite: General managers leading business units or an entire organization, who want to develop a 360° capability to drive innovation and digital transformation across functions.
