About this course

Skip About this course

Throughout time, business leadership has transformed, up to the point that it is now necessary to take into account that leaders have to interact with up to four generations simultaneously, additionally to managing companies through digital transformation processes. This reality requires new competencies that speed up the necessary changes in companies in the long term.

In the same way, the digital transformation that companies are living implies that company leaders understand the relevance of identifying the human being (their staff and their customers) as the center of technological innovation.
