Navigating a BANI World: Leadership, Business Resilience and the Path Forward

Amid rising political instability and a volatile global landscape, businesses face unprecedented uncertainty. Shifting markets and rapid change make decision-making increasingly complex, threatening even the most resilient organisations.

Building on last year’s theme, “Leadership in a Fractured World”, this year’s focus is on “Navigating a BANI World” with Systems Leadership. By cultivating holistic and interconnected thinking, leaders can turn challenges into opportunities and confidently navigate today’s complex environment.

Join us to develop the capability for a more resilient, collaborative future.
