As a consequence, every firm is now experimenting, exploring and testing out new strategies on how to survive and prosper in this new, and still evolving, business landscape. ...less

The world just suffered through a series of 'once-in-a-lifetime' shocks, all back-to-back! These events have permanently altered global supply chains, driven up inflation, produced historic labor shortages, and fundamentally changed how people work, live and play. In short, the world economy has now entered a new, more volatile era. Every nation now faces a cyber war that has the potential to cripple their economies.
