8 Courses to Help Leaders Influence Positive Change in Times of Crisis
When Chief surveyed 600 C-suite executives earlier this year, 54% of CEOs said they expected leadership to become more challenging in 2024. They cited changing worker expectations, cybersecurity threats, retaining talent, and keeping up with AI among the major reasons why.
Any one of these challenges would be a lot for even the most prepared business leaders. Together, they stand to bring about the kind of foundation-shaking changes that could even lead to a full-blown crisis.
