Complexity is the top issue facing most companies today


In a recent survey, CEOs identified complexity as the primary challenge they face. Nearly 80% said they expect high levels of complexity over the next five years. Yet far fewer felt prepared. Complexity dramatically increases cost and risk of failure. It is like a cancer that eats away at efficiency and profitability.
Andy Beal Chairman & CEO, Beal Bank
