CEOs

Nearly four out of five report that AI spending remains a top investment priority over the next three years.

CEOs are slightly more confident now than they were right after the Iran war started, but not by much, according to the latest survey from The Conference Board and The Business Council.

From AI to tariffs to generalized economic uncertainty, a survey from KPMG gives us a glimpse into the minds of 100 big-time CEOs.

Companies face plenty of pitfalls when selecting a new leader.

The Conference Board’s latest measure of CEO confidence fell in the fourth quarter— which puts more executives feeling negative about the economy than positive.

“It's not the change of tariffs,” said KPMG U.S. CEO Tim Walsh, “but the fact that tariffs are changing, and then sometimes changing again.”

Both the company and the union say it’s the other side holding up negotiations at the bargaining table.

KPMG’s latest U.S. CEO Outlook survey finds that more than 70% of corporate executives feel AI “will not dramatically change their workforce.”

And 72% of CEOs surveyed anticipate modest or significantly increased hiring in the next year.

And what do medieval times have to do with it?
