Call for Papers

Decision-making is at the heart of leadership. As organisations wrestle with deep and fundamental change across the business landscape, how must they prepare to take decisions that are relevant, efficient and effective? Leaders must make the best use of available resources to leverage traditional strengths and capacities to the fullest. Alongside, a host of technical, cultural, behavioural, social and environmental interdependencies can throw up new challenges and opportunities for leaders. Emerging trends and evolving technologies, among them IoT, big data analytics, AI and blockchain, will continue to disrupt current business processes, making the task of managers charged with taking decisions even more complex.
