Overview

Geopolitical risk is at the top of the CEO agenda, according to McKinsey’s latest survey of global economic conditions. In the face of fragmentation and uncertainty, many business leaders are responding by intensifying their focus on resilience.

Going global now means more than unlocking specialisation and scale, developing markets and creating multinational corporations. Boards and CEOs need to assess whether they can remain global players, and if so, how.

Andrew will discuss: the geopolitical risks of the present and the future, six key dimensions to geopolitical resilience, and the McKinsey and World Economic Forum Resilience Consortium, whose aim is to develop a common resilience framework for public- and private-sector organisations.
