Leadership in the Digital Age — A 6-Week Online Micro-Credential for Modern Leaders

The pace of technological change is accelerating, and so too are expectations of leaders. Today’s organisations need leaders who can navigate digital transformation, lead distributed teams, make data-informed decisions, and apply ethical frameworks to new technologies. Leadership in the Digital Age, a 6-week online micro-credential from the Bandaranaike Academy for Leadership & Public Policy (BALPP), is designed precisely for that challenge — a practical, focused programme that equips professionals with the mindset, tools and tactics needed to lead confidently in a technology-rich world.

Why this course matters

Digital disruption is no longer the future — it’s the present. Organisations are shifting to hybrid working models, adopting cloud platforms, and using AI and analytics to guide strategy. However, technology alone doesn’t create advantage: leaders who can translate technology into human-centred change do. This micro-credential helps leaders move beyond technical buzzwords to lead people, processes and strategy in ways that are ethical, inclusive and outcome-driven.
