Transformational Leaders to Restore Confidence
We advance in our commitment to develop transformational leaders and promote a society based on greater equality and access to opportunities.
-

Global business is undergoing a deep and accelerated process of change that is disrupting the status quo and the certainties that until recently defined it.

In a short time, technological and scientific advances, such as artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, the internet of things, robotics, autonomous vehicles or quantum computing, are transforming the economic and competitive landscape, disrupting whole industries and creating new ones. Concurrently, there are growing concerns about the rise of economic nationalism, anti-globalization and populism in different parts of the world and their impact on business and society.There is evidence of a growing mistrust in the globalized economic model and in the capacity of leaders and institutions to solve global challenges, including inequality, poverty, corruption, unemployment, climate change and migration.

Whilst the exponential change from technological capability provides the opportunities to advance significantly in solving major current problems, there is  a concurrent challenge for societies that that do not adapt or solve important educational challenges. In spite of the context, a highly connected global economy becomes even more interconnected and technology will continue to drive and impact market and societial development beyond conventional geopolitical boundaries.  In this context, the most important challenge is leadership.
 

EGADE Business School recently celebrated the fifth anniversary of the Global Network for Advanced Management (GNAM), a network of 29 global business schools on five continents of which EGADE Business School is a founding member, and through which communities, stakeholders and resources connect to drive innovation and value creation. In this context, we reiterate an important founding principle: to develop leaders who can  thrive in diverse and complex contexts, with a global vision and experience.

At Tecnológico de Monterrey and EGADE Business School we prepare the leader for this new era. An inclusive, responsible and adaptive leader, able to integrate complexity and respond to a changing environment: a transformational leader with a positive vision of the future and with the character and skills to transform our organizations, as well as to create businesses and solutions that promote a shared prosperity.

Thus, we move forward in our commitment to move towards a society with more opportunities, based on trust, that leads to a competitive economy, with the potential for innovation that only the new transformational leaders will be able to inspire and achieve.
