The report surveyed more than 2,500 business leaders around the world, the developed four points to consider in addressing the ten organizational shifts. Patrick said he was the most surprised about the consistency in responses they received from organizations from different countries.

Increasing speed, strengthening resilience.
‘True hybrid’: The new balance of in-person and remote work.
Making way for applied AI.
New rules of attraction, retention, and attrition.
Closing the capability chasm.
Walking the talent tightrope.
Leadership that is self-aware and inspiring.
Making meaningful progress on diversity, equity, and inclusion.
