In today’s interconnected global business environment, characterized by increasing complexity and uncertainty, firms operating across borders face unprecedented challenges. The growing prevalence of polycrisis (i.e., interconnected and compounding economic, geopolitical, and environmental disruptions) demands a fundamental reevaluation of traditional risk management and resilience strategies. Multinational enterprises (MNEs) and smaller firms alike must navigate these overlapping crises, which transcend geographic and industry boundaries, destabilizing global supply chains and challenging conventional approaches to diversification, financial hedging, and crisis management. This Professional Development Workshop (PDW) will comprise a panel discussion addressing these pressing issues through a focused exploration of the international shipping industry—a critical sector at the nexus of global trade and systemic risk. The panel discussion will illuminate the theoretical and practical dimensions of resilience-building, from adaptive supply chain strategies to multi-stakeholder collaborations that address systemic risks. This event offers participants a unique opportunity to gain cutting-edge insights into navigating polycrisis, fostering innovation, and building resilience in an era of profound global transformation.
