KPMG 2025 CEO outlook survey

Presenter: Mark Danckwerts, Partner

The world continues to face geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty. Despite confidence in the global economy falling to pandemic levels, CEOs are optimistic about their organisations’ prospects and are strongly backing a combination of investment in AI and retaining and retraining of high-potential talent to sustain and fuel future growth.

In this complex environment, CEOs acknowledge they must rethink their organisations’ roles and capabilities as well as adapt their growth strategies. Greater agility and faster decision-making, transparency in communication, and the ability to identify, prioritise and manage risks are seen as the top leadership capabilities needed today.

In this session we will share with you more detailed insights into what CEOs have to say about the key trends impacting the industry in an ever-evolving market.
