How the Best Leadership Teams Navigate Uncertain Times While we don’t know what the rest of the year will bring, it’s reasonable to assume that the headwinds we’re experiencing will continue. This is an environment that will demand — and reward — high-performing leadership teams. Based on his conversations with more than 100 clients across industries, PWC U.S. Chair and Senior Partner Tim Ryan has identified seven factors that set these teams apart: 1) They create a “company-first” culture; 2) They think and act across the enterprise; 3) They maintain a relentless focus on reinventing the business; 4) They free up the right people for the hard stuff; 5) They’re inclusive of different backgrounds and skills; 6) They encourage healthy debate, but avoid undermining fellow leaders; and 7) They strive to be humble and objective.
Whether it’s inflation, rising interest rates, supply-chain disruptions, geopolitical tensions — there is a lot happening in the global economy. And on top of those forces, consumer expectations are increasing, competition is intense and investors are raising the bar. There’s never been a more challenging time to be a CEO or member of senior management.

WorkWorkAmericans Eat Twice As Much Chicken As Beef Or Pork—Here's Why It Will Take A While For Lab-Grown Meat To Catch Up  Chicken overtook beef in per-person consumption in 1993, according to the USDA. Supermarket prices for meat show that chicken has historically been—and continues to be—the cheapest meat, according to a USDA National Retail Report. The cost of a whole chicken was $1.92 per pound in May 2023, while the average cost of beef in cities ranged from $4.95 to $10.75 per pound, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Converting chickens to meat is easier—and cheaper—than converting larger animals. Chickens also mature faster than other livestock, reach market weight quickly, and can be raised in a variety of environments, including small plots of land, per the USDA. Tyson foods is the largest American poultry processor, producing one in five pounds of all chicken, beef and pork in the U.S. The Tyson family is worth $3.3 billion, according to Forbes.

People are saying it is not right for the police to kill a young person of colour at close range for a traffic offence. Young people are fed up with racism in general. I have four sons, I'm worried for all of them. But I'm afraid that this reaction, where young people are clashing with police at night on the estates, will just make things worse.
