Do you have a strategy to address digital disruption? How do you plan to address the impact of the digital network economy on your business? Do you understand the profound challenges that the convergence of technology and globalization will have on strategy and leadership?
We are pleased to invite you to a two days masterclass that will enable you to acquire the requisite combination of world class conceptual skills and organisational capabilities to build an adaptive and resilient organisation fit to compete and excel in today’s complex, interconnected world.
