Attracting international investors is a game-changer for businesses seeking to scale globally.

Winning the confidence of international investors starts with presenting a clear vision backed by robust data and a proven track record. It involves demonstrating not only the scalability of your business model but also your ability to navigate diverse markets and regulatory environments.

Wonderful to see “Shocks, Crises and False Alarms” by BCG Henderson Institute colleagues Philipp Carlsson-Szlezak and Paul Swartz listed as a 2024 best read by Financial Times. They argue that economic #forecasting and commentary consistently over-estimate the negative impact of #crises and #shocks, which distorts planning and resource allocation, imposing real costs. More importantly, they suggest a practical guide for leaders to navigate economic risk and uncertainty - a critical topic for current times.

"𝙄𝙛 𝙞𝙩 𝙖𝙞𝙣'𝙩 𝙗𝙧𝙤𝙠𝙚, 𝙗𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙠 𝙞𝙩." – 𝗛𝗲𝗻𝗿𝘆 𝗙𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝘇 At the recent launch of my latest book 𝘚𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘴𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤 𝘊𝘌𝘖𝘴, I had the honour of hosting a conversation with some remarkable leaders featured in the book, including Henry Fernandez, Chairman and CEO of MSCI Inc. Henry’s rare warmth and gift for storytelling immediately drew everyone in. His perspectives on what it takes to continually raise the bar—and then widen the gap—left a lasting impression. One quote in particular struck a chord: "𝘐𝘧 𝘪𝘵 𝘢𝘪𝘯’𝘵 𝘣𝘳𝘰𝘬𝘦, 𝘣𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘬 𝘪𝘵. 𝘗𝘶𝘴𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘥𝘨𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘭𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘯𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳. 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘮 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵." This wisdom applies equally to leading and innovating in business as it does to our personal growth. True progress lies in the courage to disrupt ourselves—whether by venturing into something entirely new or taking what we’re already doing and elevating it to the next level. As Henry put it, a company can’t thrive by simply doing what it used to do. It must regenerate itself every year into something even better. So, where in your journey do you need to 𝘣𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘬 𝘪𝘵—to disrupt yourself and unlock new levels of success? #StratosphericCEOs #ExtraordinaryLeaders #LeadershipMindset #SuccessStrategies #LeadershipWisdom #LeadershipInsights
