WHAT
Digital innovations such as big data and analytics, cloud and mobile
solutions, social media, and the Internet of Things are changing the
dynamics of competition across industries. Business leaders know
they must transform their organizations in response, but they do
not know how.
Having the right technologies in place is important, but not sufficient.
The full benefits of digital transformation can only be realized through
a clear understanding of digital technologies, a visionary digital strategy,
appropriate organizational change, and extensive capability building.
Leading Digital Business Transformation provides you with the right set
of strategic and organizational foundations to improve your company’s
performance through the use of digital technologies. You will be
immersed in the latest digital tools and trends to help you to discover
new ways to create value for your customers. You will build a roadmap
for achieving competitive advantage that combines both digital and
non-digital assets and capabilities.

Leading Digital Business Transformation is designed for business
leaders and senior managers from all business areas, such as
marketing, operations, IT, and strategy, who wish to develop a strategic
roadmap for digital business transformation in their organizations.
LDBT is specifically designed to address the following challenges:
»How can we compete within our industry with “born on the web”
companies like Amazon and Google?
»How can we leverage digital innovations like analytics and mobile
solutions for our traditional old world business?
»How can we determine if digital is an opportunity, a threat, or both?
»How can we successfully navigate the route towards more innovation
and digitalization?
»We know we have to become more “digital”, we just don’t know how
