Change is accelerating, and the environments in which businesses and individuals participate are changing. Complications and emergent complexity will increase, thus pushing situational analysis to the fore. While more information sources on trends and potential change are available, few businesses are taking advantage of dealing with change proactively. Those who make situational analysis a proficiency will make dealing with change a key to thriving in 2025 and beyond.

2. Lack of Speed Kills
Organizations and individuals that can't keep up will be in for uncomfortable days ahead. Not only will proactivity be necessary, but the ability to adapt with the proper speed will become a cherished proficiency. Organizations need to see where they are in real-time and make decisions that follow expected and unexpected situations at all levels. Quickly taking the right actions is the most crucial ability for organizations and individuals. Bombardments from bad actors and impure data/information will complicate it.

3. AI will be a Force Multiplier
Many facets of AI will gain momentum in 2025. AI will be essential to deliver productivity gains necessary to move the needle for GDP growth while reducing the hours worked for organizations and individuals. AI will unlock and multiply human potential in new and better ways. AI will be embedded in more and more interactions, processes, and applications in 2025. AI will act as agents to complete tasks for humans, enhance skills as humans complete their assignments, and give knowledge and advice in various domains and roles that humans participate in. It makes no difference if you are a consumer, employee, investor, or creator; AI will be there in emerging ways in 2025. Ethics will be tested in 2025 as some use AI in unexpected ways.

4. Many Facets of AI
Many, but not all, facets of AI will make significant progress in 2025. Typically, flashy forms of AI catch the eye of the news and markets. In 2024, it was Generative AI, and in 2025, so far, it's Agentic AI. While markets tend to follow the flash, with AI, it's more than the flash. Past forms of AI will continue to build multiple baselines while the "AI du jour" will cast its temporary spells. AI will likely be used in combination with other digital technologies to find soft spots for increased productivity. It won’t be just automation; it will be assistance as well in 2025, leading to augmentation by AI and teamwork with AI.

5 Govern Now or Pay Later
While we all wait for governance and legal frameworks from the strategic and governmental levels, we need to do our job by setting proper goals and boundaries for AI. As AI emerges, setting up good goals and boundaries will be essential, along with auditing outcomes. Governance will lag until something bad happens at a local or global level. There will be goal and boundary conflicts until an overall framework is agreed upon and enforced, but I would settle for the framework for now. Enforcement will evolve slower than the framework initially.
