Rodrigo Simões de Almeida: “Uncertainty is everywhere”
In “5 Minutes”, the CEO of Mercer and Marsh warns of the need for companies to build business continuity plans, paying particular attention to supply chains, diversifying the geographic destination of businesses and, above all, paying close attention to people and their training and awareness.
Rodrigo Simões de Almeida, CEO of Mercer and Marsh, has spent the last year seeing some of the risks that the consultancy had put on the radar to alert businesspeople come to fruition.
At the top of the agenda are the consequences of armed conflicts, which are currently the top concern for managers and businesspeople. In fact, the impacts are now quite visible, in addition to the damage caused by the tariff war, in addition to other events such as the unpredictable power outage.
It is in this context of enormous uncertainty that Rodrigo Simões de Almeida warns of the need for companies to build business continuity plans, paying particular attention to supply chains, diversifying the geographic destination of businesses and, above all, paying close attention to people and their training and awareness-raising — it is they, in companies, who can find the best ways to avoid the greatest impacts. “Uncertainty is everywhere,” says the CEO to the “5 Minutos” podcast.
