Towards a Perpetually Adaptable Enterprise Today, businesses operate in a context of perpetual change, characterized by global economic shifts, geopolitical disruptions, ambitious sustainability targets, new legislations, and rapid technological advancements. To become a truly adaptive enterprise, an organization needs to rethink internal structures, revise strategies, and set in place systems that pave the way for readiness and agility. An era defined by digital acceleration and perpetual change requires a different perspective on talent and skills, as well as reinvented management practices. This will help the business anticipate technological advancements in AI, quantum computing, and cybersecurity much faster and enable it to become a part of a collaborative, hyper-responsive ecosystem.
