Human progress isn't a steady journey; it often advances in sudden leaps. Today's innovation landscape is being reshaped by shifting geopolitical forces, digital generation making up over two thirds of the workforce, and the rapid ascent of AI. Established leaders are at risk of losing their position, while new contenders have an opportunity to seize the spotlight. In this constantly evolving world, having a strong MOAT is vital for your business to grow, maintain relevance, and capture market share.

“If the rate of change on the outside exceeds the rate of change on the inside, the end is near.” - Jack Welch

Most companies end up in crisis because they can't respond to the change fast enough, even if they recognize the need for transformation. Over almost 2 decades of working with companies of different sizes, I've gotten to see numerous times examples of this and what differentiates companies that are able to get ahead of the change curve, versus those that can't.

Today, I'm fortunate to be in a position to share this experience with various audiences out there comprised of corporate executives, board members and industry experts. If you’re not already working on building or fortifying your economic MOAT, there’s a high chance enemy is at the gate.
