Leadership in the Age of Digitization: Shaping Leaders of the Next Generation

The world is increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex and fast-paced. What does that mean for future leaders? What are ways to lead and maximize the effectiveness of leaders in a changing business environment? Effective leadership is the bedrock of successful business performance. The 21-century organizations require leaders that will develop new mind-set and capabilities to transform themselves, their teams, and their organization. 

However, the role of leadership is not only confined internally. In response to the emerging challenges of the past decade, dominant ideas about what defines effective business leadership has changed. While previously addressing societal challenges has been solely in the realm of political and civic leaders, today, more and more executives increasingly recognize the role of business leaders in leading change beyond traditional business boundaries. The leadership role today requires understanding and addressing the major forces shaping society and contribute to public debate with an informed point of view.
