Building Adaptive and Resilient Organizations

Event graphic for Building Adaptive and Resilient Organizations

Discover your competitive edge

Today, the inability to anticipate and respond to emerging crises and opportunities has upended the global progress and undermined the creation of wealth and prosperity in societies. Leaders continually struggle to balance the benefits and costs of adaptability, and the resilience needed to achieve it.

Addressing these challenges, this virtual program is divided into three parts. The first part will introduce the structure and dynamics of adaptive organizations. The second part will focus on how ambidextrous managers create lasting sources of competition. And the third part will present multi-sector evidence to highlight the process and role of leadership in creating dynamic capabilities to achieve long-running performance.
