A Recent survey highlighted the 5 most important challenges facing CEO’s in Australia today: A comprehensive analysis of the 2016 survey showed five top concerns for CEOs, which are resulting from both industry and economic pressures: 1. Hiring and retaining talented staff: Nearly 30 per cent of CEOs highlighted staff management as an important challenge for the year ahead, including attracting, training and retaining staff. Additionally, keeping long-term existing staff energised and motivated was a cited area for focus. Interestingly, staffing attracted more feedback than any other issue. 2. Mastering disruptive technology: Just over one-quarter (26 per cent) of survey respondents considered disruptions and opportunities caused by technology to be one of the most significant trends they will face in 2016. Those CEOs who see technology as an opportunity tend to focus on how it will allow them to make large-scale changes to their business processes. 3. Business growth: In 2015, approximately one in five CEOs described growth as a key area of transformation and concern. One year later, that has grown to one in four (23 per cent of respondents). A common theme in this year’s discussions of growth was the impact on businesses of the apparent slowing of the Australian economy, with respondents calling out the need to manage a sluggish market. 4. Economic uncertainty: One in six (16 per cent) CEOs cited economic uncertainty as a key concern for 2016, and this anxiety is resulting in reduced business budgets and apprehension towards business spending. Interestingly, CEOs are also setting more conservative targets for success. 5. Managing change and improving processes: Managing change was noted as a major challenge for 15 per cent of respondents. Overall, the need for ‘change management’ was framed as a consequence of other trends, such as economic fluctuations, technological developments and international competition, particularly from Asia. Technology is also a key driver of the perceived need to manage change. However, CEOs were divided over the exact nature of the issue. Some saw change as a necessity in the face of existing technologies, while others spoke of harnessing innovation to drive real change.
