Managing with success in Asia

In this 2.5-day program, participants will develop a broad understanding of the business systems and cultural challenges in the Asian business environment, e.g. hiring and retention, government relations and IP management. Through this program, they will develop skills in „reading the situation“ and devise a conceptual framework for cooperation with their respective teams in various regions across Asia. Participants will also achieve clarity on mistaken assumptions associated with the dichotomy of establishing global partnerships in Asia.

Mastering Digital Transformation

Digital Transformation is at the top of any CEO’s agenda, but can it be mastered like any other big managerial challenge? What makes digitalization different from the first wave of digitalization where companies introduced CRMs like Salesforce or ERPs like SAP? In this course, we not only talk about the issue but also work on the participant’s digital business models.
The course is organized in the following blocks:

  • What is new about digitalization? What happens if things not only become smart but can also act? How can Artificial Intelligence (AI) be used today? What are the perils of current use cases in AI? How does management have to react to AI, if it is confronted with probabilities and not certainty anymore? What are the limitations of AI today?
  • What are the economics of digitalization? How are the digital economics – like network effects – different from business in the physical world? What do these economics mean to management and how does management have to change? In this world, can a profitable no. 3 exist in the market?
  • The 3 horizons of innovation and how to master them: Innovation comes in very different forms and horizons and all have to be managed differently. Are agile methods good for any innovation project? What is the difference in management of complex vs. complicated innovation projects?
  • New boxes for strategizing. Business models and ecosystems of connected business models are the new units for analysis and strategizing. We need these new boxes to see where change is coming from and where we have to build up capabilities to master digital transformation.
  • Customer centricity as the prerequisite for transformation: Technology is not the key to digital transformation but customer centricity. Companies have to refocus away from products to the basic needs they serve or the jobs they perform for their customers, like mobility for example.
  • Digital Transformation is business model innovation: Digital Transformation is always a radical change in the business model aka business model innovation. What are the strategies of B2B companies like Hilti or Würth to master this challenge?
  • An agile process for digital transformation & new work culture: What culture do you need in your company? What is an agile process to learn and execute faster? What works in digital and what does not work?

Digitale Transformation braucht neue digitale Werkzeuge für die Weiterbildung, 31.05.2022

Die digitale Transformation erfordert neues Denken und neue Konzepte.

Die Personalabteilungen vermitteln die Kompetenzen dazu und sind zugleich selbst zur Transformation verpflichtet.

Aber mit der Digitalisierung um der Digitalisierung Willen ist es nicht getan. Unter anderem geht es darum Prozesse effizienter zu gestalten. Daten schneller zu verarbeiten und neue Daten erheben bzw. auswerten zu können.

Doch bei der Bandbreite an verfügbaren digitalen Lösungen gilt es die eigenen Bedürfnisse und Ansprüche genau zu prüfen und die dazu passenden digitalen Werkzeuge zu identifizieren.
