Deloitte insights magazine Issue 31 Capacity for change Explore Issue 31 Features Perspectives Data points Contributors Meet the team Past issues Subscribe Issue 31 Capacity for change Letter from the editor Elisabeth Sullivan Editor in chief,
Deloitte Insights When we asked executives around the world about their concerns for the year ahead, two macro issues rose to the fore: volatility and uncertainty.Sound familiar? Change—and a dearth of reliable data to guide organizations through it—is a known variable in today’s leadership equation.
If change is a constant, it follows that leaders need to ensure their organizations’ capacity for change, and that might look quite different in today’s terms—and tomorrow’s.What will it take to continuously adapt and innovate inside and out?
How can you balance your growth strategy with shorter-term challenges? For this issue, we’ve created and curated exclusive research and insights on how leaders can, as one author puts it, “flourish in ambiguity.”
Deloitte Insights’ mission is to help future-focused leaders navigate what’s next, so we’ll keep these special editions coming, guided by your input on the challenges and opportunities in front of you.
