The 2020 Decade for Workers: Disruption Is the Only Constant

It's a lot for companies to navigate, and they're struggling with it: an analysis by Korn Ferry of more than 150,000 leadership profiles shows that only 15% of business leaders today have the right blend of skills to be the leaders of tomorrow. But such disruption can be a boon to workers who are agile and forward thinking.
