To BCG’s network around the world,
I wrote to you a couple weeks ago about the enormous uncertainty we all face in 2021, and I’m sure it’s a theme I’ll return to in the months ahead. As we learn more about the challenges related to vaccine rollout, geopolitics, climate change, large economic uncertainty, and more, I keep coming back to a 30-year-old BCG publication whose relevance today is striking.
It was 1990 when John Clarkeson, then CEO of BCG, wrote “Jazz...

BCG – Weekly Brief: Ensuring AI Lives Up to Your Values
To BCG’s network around the world,
Artificial intelligence holds enormous promise for all stakeholders: better performance for companies and superior and more personalized products and services for customers. For many businesses, it’s a capability that has only grown in importance since the pandemic began.
But we’ve seen serious downsides, too. For example, there have been equity issues in AI algorithms used for housing and mortgage offers,...

Weekly Brief: Biological Mindset + Digital Levers = Resilience
To BCG’s network around the world,
When times are stable, leaders are absorbed with driving performance. But during a crisis, what matters most is how well a company can manage stress, recover operations, and advance in the face of adversity. This requires leaders to focus also on resilience.

When it comes to the damage caused by the coronavirus, there are three groups of people who are at risk...

Learning Fast to Survive and Thrive
To BCG’s network around the world,

The first of our five imperatives highlighted that the nature of competition was rapidly changing and that the rate of learning would become a core source of advantage.
