How has the nature of leadership changed in the new economic environment?
In a world fraught with uncertainty, what are today's CEO's doing to strengthen their situations against competitors?
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 external impacts do CEOs expect to loom largest in the coming years, and how does geography factor into those perspectives? How can CEOs use the information explosion to their advantage? In an increasingly interconnected world, which leadership qualities and management actions and styles enabled certain organizations to outperform their peers over both the long term and the short term?

Introduction to the 2010 CEO Study (3:19)
Hungry for change. Innovative beyond customer imagination. Globally integrated. Disruptive by nature. And genuine, not just generous—all insights derived from the previous IBM CEO Study. Rethinking the Enterprise expands on these topics, delving deeper into challenges posed by volatile business conditions and key capabilities organizations will need to not simply cope with constant change, but take advantage of changing market dynamics.
Despite the multitude of challenges organizations face, companies must be prepared to act decisively and remain flexible enough to adapt to constantly changing conditions. This paper, After the Crisis: What now? outlines our latest thinking and the areas in which organizations must focus on in order to succeed in the post-crisis economy.
