Aoife Stokes, MD, Cable Rock Pictures | Board Member
"I chose the Diploma in Digital Transformation and Innovation to better understand the practical use of digital and data in the workplace, including AI, and to learn best practice for implementing change in this area.
The course was excellent. It gave a comprehensive overview of use cases for new digital technologies, including AI, but also focused on implementing transformation both with teams on the ground and executive teams. This included everything from world class guest speakers to practical matrixes for planning digital transformation to investment frameworks.
I feel much better equipped engaging with data, digital technologies and transformation, but more importantly, gained a key understanding of how this is ultimately all about people, collaboration and guiding organisations through change."
