Stu Sjouwerman | Mar 24, 2021

KPMG in the UK just released their CEO 2021 Outlook Pulse Survey where global leaders were asked about their 3-year outlook.  CEOs of the world’s most influential companies are planning what a return to ‘normal’ will look like. Nearly half (45 percent) expect normality to resume in 2022, with only one-third (31 percent) anticipating a return to normal in 2021. Significantly, 24 percent of leaders say that their business has changed forever.

When asked:  Which of the following risks poses the greatest threat to your organisation's growth over the next 3 years? the following graph was published. Note the change from position 5 in 2020 to position 1 in 2021:
