Firstly, thank you to Maureen Metcalf and the team at the Future Innovative Leadership Institute for asking me to join them on a podcast to discuss the future of leadership in a VUCA-MAX world where nothing stays the same, where everything is getting faster and more complex, and where sci-fi is increasingly sci-fact.

Today we’re seeing the CEO’s of major corporations burn out faster than ever before, with the average tenure falling from just over 10 years to just 5 in the past decade, and surveys show that CEO’s control just 45% of what happens to their companies – such as talent hiring and retention, product development and R&D, and so forth – with the remaining 55% coming from external trends and factors.

And, against the backdrop of the emergence of hundreds of technologies and trends it’s unsurprising that many leaders today feel over whelmed by everything, as well as find it increasingly difficult to see it all, understand it all, and plan for what could – or could not – be coming to prop up or destroy their companies prosperity.

During the podcast we covered all manner of topics, great and small, explored the future, discussed the importance of future ready mindsets, and discussed what leaders and their teams can do today to prepare themselves and their companies for what’s coming tomorrow.
