As the global economy grows ever more complex and uncertain, new skills are needed. Endless streams of new enterprise technology, deteriorating international relations, the rise of populist leaders, climate chaos, misinformation and disinformation – there’s no shortage of issues confounding modern leaders. In this episode, leadership advisor, coach and futurist Louise Mowbray sets out the new skills for future-focused leadership.
The range of challenges confronting businesses today are constant, complex and deeply entangled. There is no rule book for this level of ambiguity and business leaders must grapple with the unknown on a daily basis. This requires an entirely different mindset and the ability to make sense of and interpret novel situations as they arise.
In this episode, Jen, Dom and Cat chat with coach and futurist Louise Mowbray about the rapidly evolving future of work and the skills required to successfully navigate it. Access to trusted networks of individuals with alternative viewpoints is a must for those organisations looking to successfully futureproof and survive the coming years.
Communication, connection and community have never been more needed in business today.
