Some of the macroeconomic uncertainties these leaders have to overcome are inflation, rising interest rates, and fear of recession. Businesses also have to deal with the diversification of its supply chains and potential relocation of manufacturing plants, energy supply restrictions and cybersecurity risks, while reaching its business, equity and sustainability goals.
