Is your company fast, creative and adaptable enough to survive in today's volatile world? In our age of disruption, your company must be agile and courageous - yet it's easy to react to today's business climate with fear and indecision. Don't make that mistake. To move quickly and intelligently to the changes unfolding around us, you must be sure all levels and functions in your businesses are creative and responsive.
Rapid changes in technology, shifting customer expectations, disruptive business models, and quickly evolving regulations force businesses to innovate quickly and invest in new lines of products or services that will fuel future growth.
Growth has always been fundamental to business success, but it's never been more critical than it is now.
"Leaders can't afford to let fear, uncertainty and doubt paralyse them. They have to wrestle with some tough strategic dilemmas, such as:
• Should we disrupt our own business before someone else does, or focus on protecting it?
• Do we develop new capabilities internally or partner?
• Do we craft a careful plan or simply plunge right in?", shares global strategy consultant Amanda Setili.
Her recently released book, "Fearless Growth" is packed with practical examples, tools and new rules to enable companies to adapt faster, move faster, and grow faster. You will learn how to:
• Capitalise on uncertainties in your market, rather than letting them slow you down,
• Leverage the talent, assets, technology, and data that exist outside your company,
• Get in sync with customers, gain early insight into changing needs, and bring the right solutions to market, and
• Open the floodgates of employee creativity, empowering employees to respond quickly and effectively to emerging opportunities.
By implementing these new rules, you will create an organisation that is primed for fearless growth, in which everyone is aligned with your vision for the future and engaged in getting there.
As a leader, you have a number of decisions to make: When will you start implementing, and how can you best prepare your people, suppliers, customers, investors, and board for the changes your organisation will be making?
