8 Major Trends That Will Define The Future of Business

Today Enterprise Explores 8 major trends that will define the future of business with Shazrul Asari, Managing Partner at Bain & Company Malaysia.

We get into their latest report, "Present Shock and Future Sensing," which offers a glimpse into the strategies businesses need to thrive in this era of unpredictability.

Over the course of this conversation, you will learn about the 8 major trends identified in the report that are reshaping the business environment and the strategies that businesses can adopt to navigate these shifts effectively.

We’ll get into the rise of artificial intelligence, the dual challenge of decarbonization and energy provision, and the potential impact of a post-globalised world as a new global order emerges.

We will also explore the concept of capital rationalisation, what it means to shift away from the traditional "invisible hand" in economics, and what Bain & Company means by "rehumanizing work" and its significance in today's business environment.
