Business Unusual: HR Leadership Amid Economic Volatility and Geopolitical Turbulence

Introduction: A New Era of Uncertainty

Global HR leaders are facing a convergence of challenges unlike any in recent memory. Economic volatility, geopolitical tensions, and global trade wars have upended many of the assumptions that guided talent strategy in the past. Business leaders now cite geopolitical conflict as the number-one risk to economic growth, as trade disputes and regional conflicts disrupt operations worldwide.
