Executives Think Boldly About Their Workforces in the Year Ahead

When tried and true solutions have proven an insufficient match for persistent challenges, it’s time to think boldly. And the Great Resignation and challenge for talent these days is nothing for company executives if not a persistent challenge.

A host of business leaders gathered virtually in April to discuss pressing issues and heard from the head of the CEO Practice at McKinsey, Carolyn Dewar, about the power of thinking differently. When asked in what area they are most excited to think boldly in the coming year, business leaders in the Transformative ommunity most often replied with workforce and talent transformation, edging out even digital transformation and living the company’s purpose.
