Live webcast: Leading through a perfect storm
HLB Survey of Business Leaders 2023Join HLB CEO Marco Donzelli and guest speakers as we reveal the findings of HLB’s annual global Survey of Business Leaders.
This year, our research explores how C-suite executives are grappling with a perfect storm of ‘low-probability, high-impact' events. Through data analysis from 575 business leaders from across 60 countries and six in-depth interviews with subject matter experts, we look at what the critical leadership behaviours are to lead through a crisis, the type of actions CEOs prioritise for 2023, and how they are thinking longer-term, beyond financial performance for the future of their enterprises.
