In our latest episode, Heidrick & Struggles’ AJ van den Berg speaks with Rainer Baumann, managing director for Head Group Digital and Information at Swiss Re. Baumann explains why it is important for organizations to be agile to survive in today’s volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) environment.
