Course overview

A leadership course for the digital age. Learn how to manage people, prepare for change, and build strategies to succeed in industry 4.0.

According to Deloitte’s 2017 Global Human Capital Trends report, leaders need to think, act and react differently to guide businesses in the digital age, yet only 5 per cent of organisations feel confident that they have strong digital leadership in place. That’s why we’ve teamed up with global technology leader Thoughtworks to equip emerging leaders, entrepreneurs and consultants with digital leadership skills for the future.

Learn cutting-edge techniques from some of Australia’s most influential innovators, including creativity, quick decision-making, and agile workflow processes to help transform your career and workplace.
