Introduction
Organisations today have to move with the changing times, practices, ideas and transform their organisations to meet these challenges.
The digital revolution is upon us and in this case managers need to understand and apply the wide range of ideas of digital technologies, digital marketing, data analytics, information systems, business intelligence to Big Data as well as managerial ideas in strategy, competition, culture and leadership.
This unique course we are offering will help you prepare for leading and managing digital transformation journeys in your organisation. It will help you understand how your organisation can take advantage of the opportunities offered by digital solutions to compete effectively and outperform the marketplace. It is also essential for managers to recognise the need to enhance their organisational capabilities in dealing with disruption and innovation conundrums in the digital landscape.
We recognise that mangers in responsible positions seek updating of skills and expertise in this dynamic changing environment for their organisation’s and personal benefit.
Attendances at short courses, whilst relevant, are not ideal for the manager to have a more detailed and critical understanding of these new skills, knowledge and expertise to apply to their work environment and their organisation’s evolving strategy.
The key to effective learning and transference of this knowledge and skills to the workplace requires a study and learning assessment regime. From this continuous assessment on the course you will gain personal awareness of your acquisition of these skills. You will be transformed!
To also ensure that you are recognised in the acquisition of this expertise in Digital Transformation, all successful participants in this course programme will be awarded our MBA in Digital Transformation. This only applies to those that possess an MBA degree from a recognised Institution. We will transfer all your prior earned credits towards our MBA Degree.
