One year later, we still find ourselves in its grip, but vaccines developed at breakneck pace have enabled us to envision recovery. The details of that recovery are not yet clear. However, it\u2019s certain that we cannot simply go back to the way things were before. The pandemic has laid bare fundamental deficiencies in our global system, weaknesses in business operating models and challenges that will shape our world moving forward. It has also unleashed energy and creativity, as leaders seek out enduring solutions to these problems.<\/p><p>The pandemic\u2019s dual role as accelerator of transformation and amplifier of disruptive forces is the thread that runs through our 24th Annual Global CEO Survey. Most of the CEOs responding to the survey are bullish about a global economic comeback. It will be enabled by a continuation of companies\u2019 pandemic-induced digital acceleration, which promises productivity and other business benefits, but also increases the threat of cyberattack and the spread of misinformation. Although CEOs\u2019 confidence in their own company\u2019s revenue prospects has rebounded, they are anxious, too: about the trajectory of the pandemic, tax and regulatory policy uncertainty, and, to a slightly lesser extent, climate change.<\/p><p>Numbers tell a story, but we know there\u2019s more to most stories than numbers. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve combined the findings from our 5,050 survey responses, gathered in January and February of 2021, with qualitative insights: interviews with chief executives conducted as part of our <em>Inside the Mind of CEO <\/em>series and analysis from our <em>Take on Tomorrow<\/em> series, published between January and March, which tackles today\u2019s most pressing issues to help leaders as they think about what\u2019s next. When we look at the survey in this light, we see an opportunity emerge\u2014a moment for business leaders to take a step back and ask: how can we do things better?<\/p><p>Answering that question is an imperative that will touch nearly every aspect of their operating model, enabled by a significantly greater focus on trust and transparency. This is certainly the case for climate change, where thus far corporate action trails government-mandated decarbonization targets; companies also face growing demands from investors and other stakeholders. It is the case for cybersecurity, which many firms have relegated to the CIO\u2019s domain when what\u2019s actually needed is a strategic approach aimed at taming corporate complexity while establishing a framework for governance and shared responsibility.<\/p><p>The list goes on, pointing to a fundamental truth: company leaders are capable of the kind of change that\u2019s needed, but they\u2019ll need to think differently and to constantly evaluate their decisions and actions against broader societal impacts. We recognize that this is a daunting challenge, and it is in the spirit of this recognition that we present our 24th Annual Global CEO Survey\u2014as a snapshot of leaders\u2019 sentiment, and as a road map of the priorities ahead and how we can collectively address them.<\/p><p>Read the full report at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwc.com\/gx\/en\/ceo-agenda\/ceosurvey\/2021\/report.html\">https:\/\/www.pwc.com\/gx\/en\/ceo-agenda\/ceosurvey\/2021\/report.html<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A leadership agenda to take on tomorrow as PwC unveils  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":29546,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[4542,724],"class_list":["post-29536","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-opinion","tag-annual-global-ceo","tag-pwc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29536","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/21"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29536"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29536\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29553,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29536\/revisions\/29553"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29546"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29536"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29536"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29536"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
