Why businesses need to get comfortable with being uncomfortable

With disruption becoming the norm, do businesses need to get more comfortable with change and discomfort?

Gus Balbontin knows disruption well, having been Executive Director and CTO of Lonely Planet as the internet dawned on the publishing industry.

He explains that businesses must avoid an ‘if it’s not broke, don’t fix it’ mentality at all costs, and that transformation requires leaders who are skilled in creating diverse networks.

Gus Balbontin spoke to Talent Talks at the 2019 World Employment Conference.
