This Monday marked the exciting beginning of the Leading Digital Transformation (LDT) executive education program on the campus of the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (IIMB). Developed through close collaboration between IIM Bangalore, FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, and Fraunhofer IIS, the program welcomed its 6th cohort, bringing together professionals and leaders who seek to understand and leverage the potential of digital transformation.

A Fascinating Learning Experience at IIM Bangalore

During the first module at IIM Bangalore, participants engage in an intensive learning experience focused on:

  • The Landscape of Digital Transformation
  • Strategic Thinking
  • Understanding Emerging Markets
  • Organizational Design for the Digital Era
  • Leadership Challenges in the Context of Digital Transformation

The program also includes industrial visits that provide practical exposure to digital transformation initiatives. These visits allow participants to observe how companies are implementing digital strategies to enhance efficiency and innovation.

Continuation of the Second Module at FAU

 The learning journey continues in mid-May at FAU for the second module. Building on the insights gained in Bangalore, participants will explore advanced topics related to digital leadership and strategic transformation.

In an era where digital technologies are reshaping industries and societies, successful transformation is not just about adopting new tools or processes. It is about placing people at the center—from customers and employees to stakeholders and communities. At FAU, participants will explore how digital transformation impacts organizational culture, leadership, and employee engagement. By placing people at the heart of digital transformation, the program acknowledges that technology alone cannot drive change. It is human insight, creativity, and collaboration that ultimately lead to sustainable digital innovation.
