Companies bear new responsibilities towards stakeholders and society. Transformational change requires individuals to behave and think differently. Aspiring and engaged leaders must be equipped with new skills, perspectives, paradigms, and narratives to make sense of and succeed in the future world of international business and to maintain a high level of commitment at all levels in their organization to solve complex business issues and carve new routes.
