Daily Inspiration: "You'll never know how to unlock your true potential if you don't know how to unlock tomorrow!" - Futurist Jim Carroll
Let me pause for a brief bit of promo material.
It's a new keynote topic I rolled out for a client that booked me a few weeks ago. In the exploratory calls with them, it became evident that they were less focused on understanding the trends that might impact them and more on needing to understand the implications of trends they were already aware of, and how to implement them. With that in mind, I pulled together a new keynote topic that has already drawn the interest of some others - Unlocking Tomorrow: How to Get To Your Future, Faster.
In the lead-in, I state the obvious:
“Companies that do not yet exist will build products not yet conceived using materials not yet invented with methodologies not yet imagined. Will you be part of this tomorrow, today?"
This leads to this observation:
"Innovative organizations succeed by mastering the pace of the new high-velocity economy. In a world of accelerating trends, they do this by understanding what it takes to align with fast-emerging opportunities!"
They can join in some good company:
"Futurist and innovation expert Jim Carroll shares his critical lessons on achieving growth in an era of acceleration, with his 10 Rules for Aligning to Your Faster Future, Faster. Derived from Jim’s experience providing senior leadership guidance to over 2,000 organizations and 2 million people worldwide, the rules will provide you with the insight you need to align to an era of acceleration - valuable lessons from global innovation leaders."
You can be sure that I'll be sharing some insight in posts to come on the '10 Rules' - after all, my client list has allowed me to observe what organizations are doing well, and not so well, on their path to 'unlocking tomorrow.'
