A widespread practice is not evidence of effectiveness. We need to return to the concepts, examine the available findings and state their limitations. 2026 marks a quiet but real shift for complex management in Lugano in the canton of Ticino. Four weak signals, captured across our last twelve months of engagements, together draw a trend worth facing head-on.

Signal 1: AI absorbs intermediate tasks

Synthesis, briefs, minutes — all of it is now drafted with a copilot. What remains for the cadre is what AI cannot do: arbitrate, commit, embody. Complex Management becomes more central, not less. A delayed measure of behaviour says more about transfer than a satisfaction questionnaire completed immediately after training.

Signal 2: Gen Z demands continuous feedback

Young cadres in Lugano in the canton of Ticino no longer accept the annual review alone. They expect weekly, short, calibrated feedback. Organisations that don't equip their managers see attractiveness collapse.

Signal 3: the return of physical presence

After five years of remote-work debate, half the organisations we support in Lugano in the canton of Ticino are now tightening their policy. Not a rollback — a reset around high-value in-person moments.

Signal 4: ESG expectations enter behaviours

ESG expectations no longer live only in reports. They enter daily management: transparency of decisions, procedural fairness, legible pay equity. Complex Management becomes a governance topic. (our executive and employee training programmes)

Implications for training

Generic short programmes are losing ground. Organisations now demand contextualised, measured dispositifs aligned with their strategic trajectory. Standardisation gives way to honest customisation.

The point of honour

We rarely measure what we dare not look at. Starting there, with rigour, is already a competitive advantage.
