What participants say about this program
Nicole Armstrong

Director Strategic Business Partner Regulatory Intelligence, Novartis, Switzerland

A clear vision is key to successful execution

My key takeaways – we are not alone. Our professional network can be an immense source of knowledge and guidance for our transformation journey. Second takeaway – having a vision that is clear to everyone in the organization is key to successful execution. If people don’t understand what you are trying to achieve, then they don’t know how to contribute and cannot support.

One of the best programs I attended

The program is among the best I attended, starting from the preparations before, handling all the logistics, then the amazing learning environment/tools, interaction with classmates/experience sharing, and finally the excellent professors with their rich knowledge and the brilliant way of transferring. IMD, thank you for the unforgettable experience.

I learned how to re-calibrate my leadership

Leading Digital Execution is a great program. The professors showed us that some type of temporary chaos is necessary and helpful and that you need to heavily factor in corporate culture and leadership. We had great case studies which came alive with presentations from guest speakers. We were shown how to re-calibrate our leadership rather than learning new skills and when to practice “agile” but not every time. Thanks to all classmates and faculty for such a great week!

As a leader today, you need to constantly learn, unlearn and relearn. My aim is to facilitate this process for you.
