About the course

Despite the opportunities and challenges presented by technological disruption, South African businesses have been slow in adopting digital transformation. Merely one-third of companies have effectively implemented the necessary operational changes to prepare for a digital future. However, embracing digital transformation is crucial to leverage the benefits of technological advancements and overcome its challenges. To help drive this process in a human-centered approach, the University of Cape Town Graduate School of Business (GSB) offers a six-week Digital Transformation Strategy course online that provides the necessary skills, tools, and knowledge to lead digital transformation strategy development and tackle the complexities involved.

If you're a manager, change agent, or leader seeking to drive innovation within your organisation, this course is tailored for you. You'll acquire insight into the advantages of employing a people-focused strategy for digital transformation and master the art of developing a relevant strategic roadmap across diverse business settings. Networking with like-minded peers is an added benefit of taking this digital transformation course online, emphasising leadership, adaptability, and tenacity in the digital era. Moreover, completing this course will enable you to validate your strategy-building expertise through a certificate of completion from GSB.
