Organizational Changes
Navigating the waves of societal, political and technological change, organizations are mainly doing more of the same in 2024. There will generally be an increased focus on DEI and ESG; there will be new regulations to negotiate, some of which could impose costs this year. Most IT leaders believe AI will create more jobs than it destroys; and 23 percent predict employee activism in the shape of unionization.
Perhaps the biggest change will be preparing for AI, with 32 percent saying a member of the board will be given specific responsibility for managing the technology.
