The decade from 2010 to 2019 appeared stable on the surface, marked by strong growth, low inflation, and steady markets. Yet pressure was building beneath the headlines: cyber threats, climate change, demographic shifts, political division, and the growing influence of activist investors.  Since 2020, the cracks have widened. Wars, pandemics, natural disasters, geopolitical tensions, inflation, rising interest rates, and disruptive technologies such as AI have created an environment of continuous volatility. Leaders now face a BANI world: Brittle, Anxious, Non-linear, and Incomprehensible. This is likely not a temporary disruption. Success depends on building resilience and developing tolerance for anxiety as a core leadership skill.
