Content
The megatrend of digitization poses major challenges for many companies in order to keep up with the high pace of innovation in the digital realm. The event deals with the basics of successful leadership in the digital age and how this can increase the innovative power of companies. Against the background of classic and modern leadership concepts (e.g. transactional, transformational and entrepreneurial leadership), students will be taught the concept of "Digital Leadership", in particular with its following four central elements:
- Digital Skillset
- Digital Mindset
- Digital Execution
- Digital Vision
Based on this knowledge, students will learn how leaders can navigate their companies through today's volatile and dynamic environment by actively involving their employees and customers in the digital culture change. The resulting implications for the innovation capability (e.g. ambidexterity) and the innovation process (e.g. open innovation) of companies will be highlighted. The theoretical content (lecture) will be linked with current examples and best practices (exercise).
