• Fewer MBAs that foster short-term, shareholder, balance sheet-oriented thinking

If we consider the possible futures that are emerging, we need a different Future Capability Profile. The profile must be viewed across two different time horizons: the capabilities required to build this emerging future and the capabilities required post-build out.

Across both horizons, these capabilities must be nurtured:

UNLEARNING is the biggest challenge. We must reimagine education and transform through combinatorial innovations that leverage AI, Mobile, Cloud, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, Big Data, and more.
