Consider: Seismic ripples from health pandemics will reverberate throughout the foundations of society for years to come, Increasingly volatile climate-related events are unravelling organisational plans in the short and long term, Geopolitical tensions, populist forces, terrorism and escalating trade wars distort the once-calm waters of multinationals and Corporate reputations are precarious and a minor error on social media can induce crisis.
