Spencer Stuart asked more than 2,000 CEOs and directors about a range of topics, and surveyed more than 1,200 employees in the US and UK.
It found that the world’s business leaders are most focused on issues they can more directly control: company culture, changing workforce dynamics and access to talent.
Fewer than half of all leaders surveyed are prioritising and addressing the disruptive emergence of generative AI, for example, while barely a quarter feel compelled to address geopolitical dynamics right now.
