A new era of leadership demands digital-first vision and AI fluency. Are you ready?
In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, the role of leadership is undergoing a seismic shift. No longer confined to traditional decision-making, leaders are now at the forefront of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and digital innovation into the core of business strategy. India's AI market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 25–35%, reinforcing its potential for innovation and job creation.
However, this transformation is not without its challenges. A KPMG survey reveals that 81% of companies struggle to keep up with the pace of technological change, highlighting the need for strategic leadership in navigating digital disruption. Moreover, PwC's Digital Readiness Survey indicates that only 25% of organisations strongly agree their company encourages innovation and adaptability, signaling a gap in leadership readiness for digital transformation.
Recognising this critical juncture, ISB Executive Education, in collaboration with Emeritus, has launched the Chief Digital and AI Officer Programme. This 30-week, immersive programme is designed for seasoned professionals aiming to lead digital initiatives and AI integration at the enterprise level.
“In today's digital era, leadership extends beyond traditional boundaries. Our CDAIO Programme is designed to equip leaders with the skills to harness AI and digital technologies effectively, ensuring they can drive innovation while maintaining robust governance,” said Sunill Sood, Executive Director, Executive Education.
