How can companies build resilience to increase their capacity to absorb stress, recover critical functionality, and thrive in altered circumstances?
Sir Roy Anderson, Professor at Imperial College London, shares 10 lessons on what we could and should learn from the Covid-19 pandemic.
COVID was a test of resilience for companies, and it has not only widened competitive spreads but also created new winners and losers. Explore our scoreboard. We identified some of the new winners and the strategies and tactics they employed to come out of the pandemic in a stronger position.
Keep resilience on the transformation agenda. Change programs that prioritize growth, debt reduction, and operational flexibility realize the full value of resilience and build advantage for the next crisis.
Kristin Peck, CEO of Zoetis, and Don Allan, president and CFO of Stanley Black & Decker, discuss what it takes to make a company resilient and how resilience creates advantage.
Making tradeoffs between resilience and efficiency is challenging, as traditional optimization approaches are not well-suited for the task. By adopting alternative principles and strategies, leaders can make more effective tradeoffs between resilience and efficiency.
