CoreNet Global Summit East Meets West 2023 - Dubai | CoreNet Global | 11 September 2023 | JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai, Sheikh Zayed Rd - Business Bay - Dubai - UAE

We have been conditioned throughout our lives to think that each question or problem has one definitive answer. However, complex challenges rarely come with a singular, simple solution and require broader thinking. While uncertainty can be seen as a threat or risk, embracing the discomfort that uncertainty brings is the new norm, and as leaders, we are expected to lean into it. This ability to navigate change, disruption, and uncertainty is paramount in a world that has become increasingly turbulent and volatile.
