3-day Virtual Seminar

Agile Leadership Strategies for Digital Transformational Change

Overview

Successful leadership of digital transformations requires a different set of leadership competencies and skills. Business leaders charged with leading their organization's digitization efforts must overcome at least three core obstacles or challenges, including strong employee resistance to change, lack of a collaborative culture that supports a 'fail fast', iterative approach to change, and underdeveloped or nonexistent change management capabilities.

Business leaders can overcome these common challenges through three primary strategies, including (a) adopting a digital leadership competency framework, (b) cultivating a collaborative organizational culture that values agility practices, and (c) developing change management capabilities.
