Design/methodology/approach

This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.

Findings

In today’s unpredictable business world, only change can be predicted with any real confidence. Organizations must, therefore, constantly evolve to successfully navigate existing and future challenges. This places considerable onus on company leaders. Leadership is critical at the best of times. Within such a volatile environment, its importance soars to even greater heights. Seemingly incessant change ensures that current leaders face a wider range of demands than their precursors.

Practical implications

The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations.

Originality/value

The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
