Disruptive Leadership

Digital platforms, new entrants and changing customer expectations can make established business models obsolete within a few years. This program examines how leaders anticipate disruption and lead their organizations through it, drawing on Christensen’s theory of disruptive innovation, ambidexterity between exploiting the core and exploring new options, and agile ways of working. Participants scan for disruptive signals in their sector, challenge legacy assumptions, design experiments, and build teams that tolerate intelligent risk, with reference to transformation agendas such as Saudi Vision 2030 and UAE digital government strategies.

Disruptive Leadership

Program Overview

Digital platforms, new entrants and changing customer expectations can make established business models obsolete within a few years. This program examines how leaders anticipate disruption and lead their organizations through it, drawing on Christensen's theory of disruptive innovation, ambidexterity between exploiting the core and exploring new options, and agile ways of working. Participants scan for disruptive signals in their sector, challenge legacy assumptions, design experiments, and build teams that tolerate intelligent risk, with reference to transformation agendas such as Saudi Vision 2030 and UAE digital government strategies.

Assessment

Short diagnostic at the start, practical tasks linked to each learning outcome, and evaluation of the applied project against published criteria.
