Enhance your C-suite capabilities as a future-ready CEO with this transformative programme
In today's fast-changing business world, driven by rapid technological progress and evolving markets, the role of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has expanded significantly. Today's CEOs are not only strategic leaders but also digital innovators, cultural influencers, and drivers of change
How are digital transformation, AI, and new skill sets reshaping the CEO's role?
Digital transformation has transcended from a buzzword to a business imperative. A global survey by Workday1 revealed that CEOs are the most ambitious members of the C-suite regarding digital revenue targets, with 21% expecting digital revenue to constitute 75% to 100% of their total revenue within three years. This underscores the pressing need for CEOs to proactively lead digital initiatives.
On the other hand, Artificial Intelligence (AI) stands at the forefront of technological innovation, offering unprecedented opportunities for efficiency and growth. According to a Gartner survey2, 34% of CEOs identified AI as the top theme for business transformation post-digitalisation. Yet, the integration of AI into business processes necessitates a nuanced understanding of its capabilities and limitations. CEOs must balance the promise of AI with ethical considerations and potential disruptions to existing workflows.
