Digital transformation continues to be a priority for organizations today; most businesses are busy deploying digital technologies, reinventing their business models with these technologies, and disrupting their market positions.

This course serves as an introduction to digital business transformation; from AI to cybersecurity; strategy to governance; creating value and impact. We will identify its critical components, and help participants build their own roadmap through introducing a framework they can use to understand how companies should evolve to extract the most value from digital technologies and business models.

The learning objectives of the course are as follows:

• Understand the different types of value digital transformation can create, and the necessary components that need to put in place to enable that value creation,

• Recognize the critical role governance mechanisms and culture play in making digital transformation a success,

• Recognize the importance of leadership skills and analyze which behaviours lend themselves better to leading digital transformation,

• Debate what challenges the future of digital transformation may include, and experience the challenges caused by lack of prioritization in cybersecurity as well as digital ethics.
