Ready-Now Leaders: Meeting Tomorrow’s Business Challenges

The Global Leadership Forecast 2014|2015

This Global Leadership Forecast 2014|2015 is the seventh report since Development Dimensions International (DDI) began this research in 1999. The current report—a joint effort of DDI and The Conference Board—includes survey responses from13,124 leaders; 1,528 global human resource executives; and 2,031 participating organizations. To ensure that no individual organization dominated the overall results, a random sample was taken from any organization whose leaders comprised more
than 1 percent of the global sample. Leader demographics are shown below.
The record-breaking size of the participant pool gave us sufficient sample sizes so that we could look at our findings from many points of view. We were able to dissect findings based on diverse perspectives spanning leaders and HR professionals, four leader levels, gender, 48 countries across all regions, 32 major industry categories, and multinationals versus local corporations.
