Speaking on the forthcoming leadership development programme of TEXEM, Lucas said that in the ever-evolving digital age landscape, the need for strategic leadership has become more critical than ever.
In a statement on TEXEM’s website, www.texem.co.uk, she said the programme “Leadership For Success In A Digital Age” will take place from Aug. 21 to Aug. 24, at the prestigious Double Tree by Hilton, London Elstree.
“The relentless pace of technological advancements and the constant influx of information demands a new breed of leaders who can navigate the complexities of the digital era.
“To thrive in this digital age, strategic leadership is not just an option; it is an absolute necessity,” it asserted.
According to the statement, the programme offers an exclusive opportunity for executive directors, non-executive directors, CEOs, chief investment officers, COOs and top managers to unlock the full potential of strategic leadership.
It affirmed that the programme will also drive their organisations to success in today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape. The TEXEM UK statement noted that staying ahead in the digital age “requires more than just an understanding of cutting-edge technology”.
It added that the programme focuses on empowering participants with the requisite skills and knowledge to become exceptional leaders who can drive their organisations to unparalleled success.
