The Big Shift:
Traversing the Complexities of a New World
1 & 2 October 2012
1 & 2 October 2012
The global financial crisis four years ago was a significant event, both in the severity of its impact and its consequences on the global economy. While an apocalyptic global financial breakdown was averted, the crisis itself is still unfolding and shaping the nature and structure of the global economy in some very fundamental ways. The re-balancing and de-leveraging that is taking place are themselves the shifts that are shaping the economic landscape. Four years later, some semblance of a ‘New World’ has emerged – a world of re-definition and paradoxes with some historical sense of déjà vu.
