How do you reset your business and leadership strategy when the world refuses to stick to the plan? Victoria King Meyer brings a midyear perspective on the dramatic changes shaping the chemical industry in 2026, ranging from supply chain disruptions caused by geopolitical tensions to the accelerating implementation of AI and ongoing restructuring across global markets. 

Victoria shares a blueprint for turning uncertainty into opportunity as she breaks down three essential resets for both organizations and individual leaders. She highlights the importance of reassessing assumptions, reallocating resources, and building adaptability at every level. With actionable advice and a practical executive discussion guide, this episode offers chemical industry professionals a timely roadmap to recalibrate for a stronger second half of the year. 

 

Join us this week as Victoria Meyer covers: 

The necessity of resetting your business plan when the world changes How supply chain and geopolitical risks have shifted industry priorities Moving AI and digital tools from experimentation to value creation Three conversations every leadership team needs to have this summer Building adaptability and removing organizational friction The role of leadership attention, impact, and redefining success in tough times Actionable steps for setting a new personal and professional scorecard for 2026 

 

Killer Quote: “Plans matter, but assumptions matter even more. And when assumptions change, you, leaders, have a choice. Continue executing on yesterday’s plan, or recalibrate, make trade-offs, and adapt faster than the market around you.” – Victoria Meyer
