Optimism Takes Center Stage at Davos

CEOs face a challenging world, says Lesser, with geopolitical tensions, technological advancements, and changes in global trade at the forefront. “I think it puts a premium on resilience, a premium on agility—a requirement to make investments that allow one to navigate those new sources of data faster,” he says.
