ISB & Emeritus Launch Chief Digital and AI Officer Program

Indian School of Business (ISB) Executive Education and Emeritus, have recently partnered to launch the Chief Digital and AI Officer Programme.

This leading-edge technology will enable professionals to develop their skills and implement them in their organizations.

According to a BCG report, almost 70% of digital transformations fall short of their objectives and end up failing. Digital change is critical for any organisation today, but they often overlook one important factor – People. How to make people overcome organisational inertia often deep-rooted over decades?

For where there is inertia there is also opportunity. The same BCG report also states digital leaders achieve earnings growth that is 1.8 times higher than digital laggards and more than double the growth in total enterprise value.

About ISB:

They provide multiple courses to working professionals so that they can stay up to date with various new technologies and this rapidly changing business.

About Emeritus:

About the course:

The courses will be offered via live sessions or case studies, and the course duration will be about 30 weeks. Thus, its flexible educational format will enable executives to learn in their free time without creating any disruption to their full-time jobs.

“The rapid evolution of digital technologies and the increasing integration of AI into business operations have made it necessary for leaders to navigate this dynamic landscape effectively. The Chief Digital and AI Officer program aims to address the pressing demand for skilled leadership by equipping them with the latest tools, insights, and strategies to excel in the ever-changing digital and AI arena.” – Mr. Mohan Kannegal, CEO, India, and APAC, Emeritus, during the program’s launch.
