Boost in confidence in business leaders ' capabilities to manage disruption

Odgers Berndtson , a global integrated leadership advisory firm operating in 33 countries , has found business executives worldwide have more confidence in their company ' s leadership than they did two years ago .

Leadership Confidence Index 2022 was conducted in conjunction with research and advisory firm , Forrester . The joint Index reveals 42 % of business executives across a spectrum of sectors and geographies are confident their organisations are being led by the right leaders . Two years ago , Odgers Berndtson published its first Leadership Confidence Index , which at the time found just 24 % of executives were confident in their company ' s leadership .
In the 2022 Index – which surveyed 1,100 executives – the majority of respondents ( 90 %) stated that their organisations had been impacted by disruption while also reporting their organisations experienced growth ( 71 %). The findings indicate the almost doubling in confidence in the past two years is a result of leaders successfully navigating their organisations through the disruption of the pandemic .
The study also reveals several trends that have played a role in this increased confidence . Technology , the adoption of which grew significantly during the pandemic , is increasingly viewed as an enabler rather than a disruptor . Less than half of executives ( 44 %) now see it as a disruptive force – a reduction from 62 % two years ago .
