What You'll Learn

Companies elsewhere, even if they don't currently have a presence in China, might consider using the China experience as a reference point. The sheer speed and scale at which China's digital ecosystem players are driving innovations is redefining what it means to manage a company today's globalised, increasingly digitalised economy. Integrating participant-centred principles, emerging technologies and cutting-edge theory on Chinese management and economic issues with best management practices, this programme seeks to prepare executives and business leaders to not only meet the challenges of a dynamic and complex global landscape, but to also drive success in their organisations in the digital economy. The programme brings in business leaders and top experts from companies such as China's largest Integrated Internet Service Provider, Tencent; one of the world's most innovative companies, Huawei; the largest unicorn in the world, ByteDance, etc. to provide an unparalleled learning experience that extends beyond the four walls of the classroom.
