Context

Leaders For What’s Next in Professional Services must be particularly agile, forward thinking and strategic. They face critical questions impacting organizational culture, member loyalty, and competitive advantage. How can centralization and decentralization be reconciled? How can global conformity and local responsiveness be credibly engineered? How can specialization and generalization be seamlessly integrated? In the quest to gain market share whilst sustaining brand reputation, how to balance core competence focus and portfolio extension? Meanwhile, relentless pressure on fees demands innovative and ROI-based pricing models. And in a discrete sector, senior professionals need powerful skills and networks to track and anticipate competitive dynamics, regulatory changes, and advances in technology if their organizations are to thrive and lead. What’s Next for your firm? How can you ensure that your new leaders are on board, motivated and fit for the future?
