Purpose
The Fourth Industrial Revolution (4.0)
Each of the three industrial revolutions has caused different demands on management and leadership. We are now entering a fourth industrial revolution where business leaders need skills to match the environment. What worked before will need to be different from what’s coming in the age of 'Cognitive', ‘Digital’, ‘Complexity’ and ‘Problematic’.
Business leaders in the first three industrial revolutions relied on physical instinct, tactical knowledge and technological innovation to solve problems. In the fourth industrial revolution accelerated change and complexity mean a leader will also have to rely on capacity and adaptive and cognitive abilities i.e. ‘Digital Mindset’.
These abilities are not well recognized yet in organisations or leadership but will make the difference between success and failure.- Leadership 4.0
