The Emerging Leaders Program

Learn to lead in a fast-changing digital world


Faced with new responsibilities, emerging leaders need to learn new skills and gain more self-awareness in order to motivate, inspire and lead high-performing teams. Moreover, in today’s increasingly digitized and interconnected world, boundaries are blurred, collaborations are more fluid and the pressure on businesses to be agile is immense.

What does it take to be an effective and mindful leader in such a dynamic world? How do you become more resilient and better at leading and making decisions in such uncertain times? Do the traditional models of leadership hold, or is the digital age seeing a new brand of leaders emerge?

Developing Emerging Leaders provides a unique perspective on leadership, designed to help executives adapt to the challenges faced by organizations in a digital environment. As an emerging leader, the program takes you on a journey of learning to lead yourself – and then translates that knowledge into leading others and forming effective team collaborations. It will equip you with skills to overcome the constraints of your organization’s leadership culture and help you to step forward with a new perspective on leading your team in the digital age.
