By the year 2035, we will likely be able to utilize AI to crunch complex data sets and produce far more accurate predictions of the future, for everything from stock market fluctuations to consumer trends. Already, meteorologists are using AI to improve weather forecasting—for instance, by more accurately predicting when a hurricane will make landfall. But BCG’s Alan Iny says this does not mean that business leaders will be able to dispense with planning for multiple scenarios. Predictions will never be perfect—and everyone will have access to the same tools—so strategic planning will remain critical even as it evolves in new ways.    Learn More:  Imagine This: https://lnk.to/imagine-this-general-show09 Alan Iny: https://on.bcg.com/4fCNDo5 [https://on.bcg.com/4fCNDo5]  Are Leaders as Prepared for Strategic Risks as They Think They Are?: https://on.bcg.com/3AXqw8J [https://on.bcg.com/3AXqw8J]  BCG on Corporate Finance and Strategy: https://on.bcg.com/496c3Ek [https://on.bcg.com/496c3Ek]  CEO Moments of Truth: https://on.bcg.com/ITMoT [https://on.bcg.com/ITMoT]   This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp

Karin von Funck, BCG’s global lead for zero-based transformation, explains why great cost transformation goes beyond spreadsheets. The best companies don’t slash expenses. They have a deep understanding of what drives value, a rigorous approach to spending, and a culture that supports smart decision making. Quick cuts may deliver short-term relief but can erode long-term growth—as well as the trust of employees.   Learn More:  Karin von Funck: https://on.bcg.com/4iBZXqn [https://on.bcg.com/4iBZXqn]  BCG Latest Thinking on Cost: https://on.bcg.com/4iU0RhB [https://on.bcg.com/4iU0RhB]  Cost Management Remains an Executive Priority in 2025: https://on.bcg.com/41VTsYm [https://on.bcg.com/41VTsYm]  This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp
