Future Leaders Complete The First Digital Leadership Bootcamp Of 2021
Focusing on equipping leaders with the essential skills and mindsets for the digital age.
Organisations need to work hard to meet customer expectations of technology capabilities. In order to do that, they need strong digital leadership to rally the troops and implement real, customer-focused change. A class of ambitious professionals have been learning to do just that when they attended the Future Leaders Digital Leadership Bootcamp run by Avado through the Digital Greenhouse last month.
The virtual course ran across two consecutive mornings and focused on four main subjects; digital context, customer obsession, design thinking and agile, and innovation culture. Attendees from local companies including Orchard PR, Specsavers, RAW Capital, Prosperity 24/7 and Guernsey Post finished the course with actionable knowledge to shape their work going forward.
Mike Wilkins
Digital Content Director, Orchard PR“I really enjoyed this thought-provoking course. There was a perfect blend of theory, practical exercises and relevant examples. It reinforced our belief that the customer is at the heart of everything we do and how, through agile ways of thinking, embracing data and enabling a culture of innovation, any organisation can create value and gain a competitive advantage.”
James Travers
Director & Head of Operations, RAW Capital Partners"I highly recommend the Digital Leadership Bootcamp to anyone involved in the planning, development or application of technology at work. After just two mornings' fast-paced and interactive tuition, I feel better informed, more confident and totally inspired to manage the technological transformation of our business."
