Through 2033, sudden disruptions will keep dominating the executive agenda, leading to higher cost of business and “decision making under uncertainty” becoming a main competitive differentiator. CIOs should therefore introduce chaos engineering, redefine what agility means and build a futurist capability into their organizations.

We include a toolkit to help identify disruptions that could affect strategy, through the lenses of technology, economics, politics, society, trust and ethics, regulations/legal and the environment.
