Shaping the Digital Transformation Process in your Company

Chief Digital Officers are responsible for managing digital transformation processes. They develop strategies for digital transformation and oversee their implementation. In our CDO training program, we provide you with the essential competencies that Chief Digital Officers need to create and execute digital strategies and guidelines effectively within organizations. You will learn to analyze business processes and identify opportunities for optimization and digitalization.

Our training program covers the introduction of new technologies, such as artificial intelligence, and strategic concepts like the 3-Horizons Model and the ACT method. Innovative tools such as the Business Model Canvas and Design Thinking will open up new possibilities to improve existing processes, products, and services, helping you gain a competitive advantage or test new ideas.

A key focus is on the development and implementation of new digital business models to meet evolving market demands. We also support you in market monitoring and analysis to identify emerging markets and opportunities.

As strategists and drivers of digitalization, you will work closely with management and various departments. We will prepare you to actively contribute to the implementation of digital transformation projects, motivate employees for the digital shift, and train them in the new, digital work processes.
