The Digital Leader Fireside chats will feature one prominent executive in a 45-minute informal Q&A discussion about an important topic.
Typically offered online around lunch time on Zoom, the chats will offer industry participants and students with a brief yet in-depth perspective on the opportunities and challenges of digital leadership. Participants can pose questions during the discussion. Each session is moderated.
Space is limited and you must register in advance. We reserve the right to screen attendees.
