ABOUT THE MASTER CLASS 

If you were asked to name successful companies, you would probably think about companies like Google, Amazon, Alibaba, Uber, Apple, Microsoft, or Netflix. The CEOs behind these companies have something in common: they are shapers and transformational leaders. Do you know your leadership style? And, the skills for the digital age? At this master class, Professor Jose Esteves will be taking a closer look at the challenges facing leaders today, assess your leadership style, and will share some ingredients for a successful digital leadership recipe. 

We look forward to seeing you there! 

About the speaker

Jose Esteves is the Associate Dean for the IE full-time MBA programs (IMBA and TECH MBA) and professor of Information Systems at IE Business School. His passion for Information Systems (IS) is founded not only in the technology itself but also on the human side of these systems. He focuses on areas such as IS/ ERP implementation, smart cities, big data, digital innovation, strategy, digital leadership, cybersecurity, and gamification. In addition to his research and teaching, Jose continues to act as a consultant to a number of companies and coaching CIOs and CXOs.   

“I believe it is the way people interact with digital technologies that will determine the success or failure of its adoption and implementation.  So, it’s all about human behavior - individual, organizational and social - and we should analyze IT/IS at these three levels.” – Jose Esteves
