How can business leaders manage uncertainty?


How can business leaders manage uncertainty?, As the global economy heads back into crisis, business leaders are focusing on what they need to do to succeed in uncertain times. The challenge they face is that the dynamics of a balance-sheet recession are different from those of a traditional inventory-cycle recession, making it even more difficult to know how to react.

We then analysed their responses by comparing them against total shareholder return (TSR) to establish which actions added value and which did not.
