Leading with Vision and Resilience in Complex Times, by Jonathan H. Westover PhD

Abstract: The modern business landscape is highly uncertain and volatile, presenting immense challenges but also opportunities for agile organizations. This article explores key strategies for organizational leadership to thrive rather than merely survive in turbulent times. Cultivating a unifying vision, building resilience to weather shocks, fostering collaborative partnerships, and nurturing a culture of innovation are identified as critical leadership imperatives. By aligning purpose, anticipating risks, leveraging diverse perspectives, and continuously reinventing, companies can navigate complexity and disruption to emerge stronger. The article concludes that strategic focus on human and technological dynamics enables organizations to ride the waves of disorder rather than be overwhelmed by them.
