Egon Zehnder released the results of its latest Global CEO Survey at the Berlin Global Dialogue.
On Oct 1, 2024, Egon Zehnder released the results of its latest Global CEO Survey at the Berlin Global Dialogue, which is taking place under the theme “Building Common Ground.”
According to the report, the survey, which polled more than 470 CEOs from around the world, highlights the unprecedented changes business leaders foresee in the coming decade and, more importantly, their responsibility in addressing complex global challenges:
95 percent of CEOs expect significant, systemic shifts in the economy, geopolitics, energy, and technology over the next decade, while 80 percent of CEOs acknowledge an expanded role beyond leading their companies, positioning themselves as key players in shaping new societal realities.
Lars-Hendrik Röller, Founder and Chair of the Berlin Global Dialogue, commented, “Political shifts, including the concerning rise of right-winged movements, are increasingly relevant to CEOs. Promoting dialogue between leaders from business and politics is hence more crucial than ever.”
