From manufacturing and finance to healthcare and retail, digital transformation is no longer optional, it’s urgent. As industries race to adopt AI, automation, and data-driven decision-making, one thing is clear: the success of digital initiatives depends not just on technology, but on leadership.
In this fast-changing environment, a growing number of organisations are asking the same question: Do our leaders have the mindset, skills, and strategy to drive real transformation?
To help answer that challenge, the Indian Institute of Management Indore (IIM Indore) has launched the Digital Transformation and AI for Leaders online programme: A career-defining opportunity for functional heads, business unit leaders, and senior professionals to gain the strategic edge in digital leadership.
“We’re seeing an inflection point,” says a programme spokesperson. “Technology is advancing fast, but the real differentiator is leadership that can turn digital potential into enterprise-wide performance.”
AI Is Driving the Future of Business, But Are Leaders Ready?
The surge in AI adoption has created new competitive advantages for organisations that move quickly: From streamlining operations to reimagining customer experiences. But many leaders still struggle to turn these technologies into transformative strategies.
IIM Indore’s programme addresses this gap with a high-impact curriculum that blends practical tools, strategic thinking, and real-world application.
