Commitments to doing more business globally are accelerating in
2012 despite economic, regulatory and other uncertainties. CEOs see
the fundamentals for future growth still squarely in place. To
understand how businesses are preparing for growth in their
priority markets, we surveyed 1,258 CEOs based in 60 different
countries and talked to a further 38 CEOs face-to-face for our 15th
Annual Global CEO Survey. "Delivering results: Growth and
value in a volatile world" explores CEO confidence in
prospects, and how they are building local capabilities and
creating new networks for new markets.
CEOs are adapting how they go to market, reconfiguring
processes, and at times entire operating models. They are also
addressing risks that greater integration can amplify and are
focused on making talent more strategic to pursue market
opportunities.
