The IBM Global 2010 CEO Study

  • How has the nature of leadership changed in the new economic environment? For the 2010 IBM Global CEO Study, we conducted over 1500 face-to-face interviews - the largest known study of its kind with CEOs in 60 countries, representing 33 industries. They shared their discoveries of both the benefits and the drawbacks of a turbulent marketplace.


What will The Enterprise of the Future be like? What will your business look like in five years, or even ten? While we don't have a crystal ball to provide all the answers, IBM's Global CEO Study will shed light on what the future may hold.

Through interviews with over 1,000 business and public sector leaders worldwide, the IBM Global CEO Study will provide new and compelling perspectives on strategic issues such as global integration, new and changing customer groups, and business model innovation - facing organisations of all sizes.

Only those organisations that understand and prepare to address the new realities of the integrated market will be able to harvest its full potential.
