The Next Normal of a New CEO

Embarking on a transformation journey at the helm of an organization is thrilling. However, journeys come to an end, and life -as well as business- goes on.

We revive that story here, in the final article of the series, The Next Normal of a New CEO.

Transformación Digital y Adopción de IA

No se trata solo de adoptar tecnología — se trata de que las personas la adopten.

La mayoría de las transformaciones digitales fracasan. Las empresas invierten millones en nuevas herramientas y procesos, pero la adopción se estanca. ¿La razón? Se enfocan en la tecnología y la estrategia, mientras ignoran cómo piensan, sienten y colaboran las personas.

Nosotros comenzamos por el lado humano. Los líderes y equipos enfrentan los miedos, hábitos y dinámicas culturales que impiden la adopción. Construyen nuevas mentalidades, comportamientos y prácticas que hacen que el cambio perdure.

El resultado: Las personas adoptan nuevas herramientas. Nuevos procesos. Nuevos sistemas. Y el impacto empresarial llega de forma natural.

Una clase magistral para líderes que guían la transformación digital y de IA.

Se centra en el cambio de mentalidad necesario para liderar el cambio.

Al combinar el potencial humano con la innovación, ayuda a los líderes a construir culturas adaptativas y preparadas para el futuro.

Los gerentes y líderes de equipo deben replantear su rol en la era de la IA. Ya no se trata de controlar tareas — se trata de facilitar resultados, moldear mentalidades y crear las condiciones para que los equipos y la tecnología prosperen juntos.

Esta clase magistral ayuda a los líderes a:

  • Cambiar su mentalidad de “dueño de tareas” a “facilitador de resultados”.
  • Guiar a los equipos en la adopción de IA mediante la creación de nuevas normas y hábitos.
  • Equilibrar el uso ético de la IA con una delegación inteligente del trabajo.

El potencial de la IA no puede realizarse sin un liderazgo capaz de hacerlo realidad. Este programa está diseñado para líderes de nivel C que necesitan:

  • Desarrollar una mentalidad digital que conecte la estrategia de IA con los resultados del negocio.
  • Comprender que la cultura de trabajo y el liderazgo —no solo las herramientas— son lo que hace que la transformación perdure.
  • Liderar con claridad, equilibrando la velocidad de adopción con la ética y el valor a largo plazo.

¿Qué incluye?

– Autoevaluación: Ofrece una línea base sobre tu estilo de liderazgo y potencial de crecimiento.

– Día 1: Convertirse en un Líder Digital Consciente

– Día 2: Transformar la Cultura y la Estrategia a través de la IA

La mayoría de los empleados de primera línea deben trabajar con IA antes de sentirse realmente seguros. Este programa cierra esa brecha al dotar a los equipos de conocimientos fundamentales y habilidades prácticas para utilizar la IA en sus funciones diarias, manteniéndose siempre alineados con los valores y la toma de decisiones consciente.

¿Qué incluye?

Módulo 1: Comprender la IA en tu entorno laboral

Módulo 2: Adoptar el Liderazgo Digital Consciente

Módulo 3: Primeros pasos con herramientas de IA

Módulo 4: Integrar la IA en la práctica diaria

Formato: Módulos autoguiados + 2 sesiones virtuales facilitadas (1.5 h cada una)

Cuando las organizaciones adoptan la IA, la cultura de trabajo es el factor decisivo. Este programa ofrece a los líderes un cambio de perspectiva fundamental: prepara tu cultura de trabajo para la IA, y la adopción llegará como consecuencia.

¿Qué incluye?

– Autoevaluación: Proporciona una línea base sobre tu estilo de liderazgo y potencial de crecimiento.

– Sesiones en vivo: 7 sesiones (3 horas cada una)

– Autoguiado: 3 módulos (2 horas cada uno, opcional)

– Extras: networking, intercambio entre pares y ejercicios prácticos

Diseñado en colaboración con Duke Corporate Education para combinar rigor académico con conocimientos aplicables.

Digital Transformation & AI Adoption

It’s not just about tech adoption – it’s about human adoption of tech

Most digital transformations fail. Companies pour millions into new tools and processes, but adoption stalls. The reason: they focus on technology and strategy while ignoring how people think, feel, and collaborate.

We start with the human side. Leaders and teams confront the fears, habits, and cultural dynamics that prevent adoption. They build new mindsets, behaviors, and practices that make change stick.

The result: People embrace new tools. New processes. New systems. And the business impact follows naturally.

A masterclass for leaders guiding digital and AI transformation.

It focuses on the shift in mindset required to lead change.

Blending human potential with innovation, it helps leaders build cultures that are adaptive and future-ready.

Managers and team leaders need to rethink their role in the age of AI. It’s no longer about controlling tasks — it’s about enabling outcomes, shaping mindsets, and creating the conditions where teams and technology can thrive together.

This masterclass helps leaders:

  • Shift their mindset from “owner of tasks” to “enabler of results.”
  • Lead teams through AI adoption by shaping new norms and habits.
  • Balance ethical use of AI with smart delegation of work.

AI potential cannot be fulfilled without leadership that knows how to make it real. This program is designed for C-level leaders who need to:

  • Develop a digital mindset that connects AI strategy with business outcomes.
  • Understand how work culture and leadership, not tools alone, make transformation stick.
  • Lead with clarity, balancing speed of adoption with ethics and long-term value.

What’s included:

– Self-Assessment: Offers a baseline for your leadership style and growth potential.

– Day 1: Becoming a Conscious Digital Leader

– Day 2: Transforming Culture & Strategy Through AI

Most frontline employees are required to work with AI before they feel truly confident. This program closes that gap by equipping teams with the foundational knowledge and practical skills to use AI in their daily roles—while staying anchored in values and conscious decision-making.

What’s included:

Module 1: Understanding AI in Your Workplace

Module 2: Embracing Conscious Digital Leadership

Module 3: Getting Started with AI Tools

Module 4: Embedding AI in Daily Practice

Format: Self-led modules + 2 facilitated virtual sessions (1.5h each)

When organizations adopt AI, work culture is the make-or-break factor. This program gives leaders a crucial shift in perspective: prepare your work culture to AI, and adoption will follow.

What’s included:

– Self-Assessment: Offers a baseline for your leadership style and growth potential.

– Live sessions: 7 sessions (3h each)

– Self-led: 3 modules  (2h each, optional)

– Extra: networking, peer exchange, and practical exercises

Co-designed with Duke Corporate Education to merge academic rigor with actionable know-how.
