The Great Recession of 2008 – 2010 is part of a transition between two ages, the Information Age and the Shift Age. Such transitions between ages are highly disruptive – and painful - as the old structures and practices are replaced by new ones. We see institutions such as newspapers and the Big 3 auto makers disintegrating but can’t yet see what will replace them. CEOs and senior executives must lead and manage through uncertain times.
The Information Age started 30 years ago in the 20th century. The Shift Age now ushers us into the 21st century a place, time and global marketplace that is and will be radically different. It is time to fully face the 21st century. Leaders who don’t face the future could put their company at significant risk.
In this Webinar, David Houle will identify and explain the three dominant forces that are reshaping the world, and how they might impact your business. He will highlight the transformative opportunities of the next 10 years. He’ll also suggest new ways to strengthen your brand, develop relationships, create value for your company, utilize and benefit from the young generations coming along and how all the rules are changing.
• The macro forces that are rapidly changing our world and what these changes are and what they might mean for your company
• The new definition of building relationships and the new ways to market to your customers
• With change accelerating, the long-range plan is dead; what you should replace it with
• The single most important way to increase the value of your company
- CEOS, leaders, senior executives
