New Curricula for e-Leadership
Delivering Skills for an Innovative and Competitive Europe
25th June 2014
Politecnico di Milano – Aula Magna
Piazza Leonardo da Vinci, 32
Milano, 20133 - ITALY
Cosa si intende per e-Leadership e in che misura il nostro sistema educativo è in grado di rispondere ai “digital requirements”? Le imprese sono coscienti di cosa significhi essere capaci di vedere attraverso le “lenti” dell’era digitale? Cosa si aspettano dall’università in termini formativi?
"New Curricula for e-Leadership - Delivering Skills for an Innovative and Competitive Europe" fa parte di un ciclo di incontri organizzati in 10 nazioni europee per definire l’insieme delle capacità che abilitano l’innovazione nelle imprese, dalle startup alle grandi corporation, dai soggetti privati agli enti pubblici. La e-Leadership consiste nell’abilità di anticipare e intravedere nuovi modelli organizzativi, produttivi e di business, ricorrendo al grande potenziale della tecnologia digitale per guidare il cambiamento. L’evento è organizzato dalla Commissione Europea, Directorate-General Enterprise & Industry, come parte dello studio "eSkills Guide-Guidelines and the European Quality Labels for New Curricula" (commissionato a Empirica), e dalla Fondazione Politecnico di Milano, in collaborazione con Rete Competenze per l’Economia Digitale, Cefriel, PoliHub e AICA.
L’evento sarà in lingua italiana. Disponibile traduzione simultanea italiano-inglese, inglese-italiano.
Demand is growing throughout European industry to improve the quality of e-leadership, covering organization leadership in ICT innovation to deliver business value. Recent research has confirmed that the shortage of e-leadership skills across Europe is significant and calls for action.
What is e-Leadership, and how the educational ecosystem is responding in this new digital era? What kinds of curricular activities must be initiated to provide the necessary education and training? Are our companies, whether large, SMEs or start-ups, aware of what it means to be able to "see" change with the "lens" of the digital age? What do they expect from the educational system? What innovations are in store for us here?
This event, "New Curricula for e-Leadership - Delivering Skills for an Innovative and Competitive Europe" aims to answer these questions by bringing together a wide group of complementary stakeholders and policy makers from a cluster of countries. It forms part of a cycle of meetings, planned in 10 different European countries, to define a set of skills enabling innovation at all levels of enterprise, from start-ups to large corporations, from private to public bodies. E-leadership expresses the ability to foresee and envision new business models, new organizational and productive models, using the potential of digital technology to drive change.
This meeting takes place in the context of a service contract on guidelines and quality labels for new curricula fostering e-leadership, commissioned from Empirica by the European Commission, DG Enterprise and Industry. The aim of the work under this contract is to develop, demonstrate and disseminate European guidelines and quality labels for new curricula fostering e-leadership skills. In Italy, the initiative is part of a series of actions taken to disseminate digital culture, promote ICT professionalism, and the European eCompetence Framework 3.0 (e-CF3.0) on ICT skills, now UNI regulation.
This should also encourage the development and improvement of attractive, adapted, up-todate educational offers able to increase the supply of experienced and highly qualified leaders in ICT-based innovation.
The event is organised by the European Commission, Directorate-General Enterprise & Industry and Fondazione Politecnico di Milano in conjunction with: Rete Competenze per l’Economia Digitale, Cefriel, PoliHub, AICA.
Target groups
This event is targeted at innovative employers, current and aspiring e-leaders, professional associations, universities and business schools as well as policy-makers interested in promoting digital innovation.
