How CEOs Can Navigate Rapid US Policy Shifts

On CNN’s Quest Means Business , BCG Global Chair Rich Lesser discusses the challenges facing CEOs amid ongoing geopolitical uncertainty, rapidly changing US policies, and the rise of AI. “Your job as a CEO is to pay very close attention, to be close to what’s happening in the environment, but also not to overreact,” Lesser says. He emphasizes the importance of maintaining a clear long-term direction for the business, understanding how government actions can affect it, and exerting positive influence without getting caught up in day-to-day turbulence.
