PRESENTATIONS by Anton Musgrave
NAKED LEADERSHIP The challenge of an open and transparent marketplace In the new age of openness and transparency, everyone - and increasingly, everything - is connected and active. There really is no place to hide! Digital technologies create profound impacts on leadership and management of organisations, and on the modern leader - they splinter and diffuse old paradigms - yet link the world into a single and chaotic global network. Blogs, wikis, crowdsourcing, augmented reality, social networks...the entire nature of communication in and with the marketplace is changing. In their wake, these technologies create massive new market opportunities and make it possible to lead from anywhere in the network. For leaders, it's about much more than technology. Charles Handy said it brilliantly: "Leaders cannot afford to walk backwards into the future, with eyes firmly fixed on past achievements - we have to turn around and face the future." Naked Leadership is about grasping the forces shaping this digital marketspace, and building a fresh mind-set that enables you to shed established, but redundant, leadership habits and be ready to face the future as a naked leader, with any old paradigms stripped away. FutureWorld's new theme, Naked Leadership, provides hard-hitting, practical insight into the realities of leadership in the uber-networked world, and offers a foundation to workshop a specific road-map for your business to thrive in the bewildering blur of life and business at warp speed! FutureWorld would also be able to facilitate such a workshop immediately following the keynote presentation.
Gr8 EXPECTATIONS: Go!Beyond Zero This keynote and workshop will show your executive team how to think beyond traditional paradigms, capitalise on the new emergent properties of ubiquitously networked markets and to Go Beyond current thinking. Our point of departure is that one can design service delivery so that it is done in an instant, literally in zero time, and delivered at zero cost. This represents a fundamentally new attitude to integrating your entire network into your value proposition. Then, there is the promise to Go Beyond Zero, adding infinite value - constantly surprising customers, staff and business partners. It's about a new culture that stretches everyone to think bigger and bolder. It's about 'the art of the possible'. It's about going beyond the pursuit of #1 to become The Only One in the eyes of your future customers. To achieve such step-changes you need to believe in the future. You need to have Gr8 Expectations about the future of your business, leading up to 2020 and beyond. Your future is only limited by the quality of your thinking today. This module is passionately presented by one of FutureWorld's Network of Gurus. To discuss this offering in more detail, please contact FutureWorld International Business Lessons from Dinosaurs Evolution, extinction & the fate of market leaders Surely there is nothing we can learn about business from pre-history? Or is there? What can we learn about business sustainability from extinction? What always happens to those who dominate the food chain? What are the common principles that govern life as we know it? How can we apply these at home and in business? We all know the value of learning from experience – we know we must build on the shoulders of giants. Wolfgang Grulke's bestselling book “Lessons from the Future” taught us that in this warp-speed world it is not enough to learn from experience – that we have to learn to learn from the future, and that the future is a matter of choice, not chance. Now with these “Principles from Pre-history”, we expand the scope with new strategic lessons for personal and organizational development – new strategies for business, and the way we live our lives. This theme covers the vast geological eras before Mankind and the profound lessons this long-view perspective teaches us. This keynote and workshop topic builds profound new insights into business and life strategies – it is full of striking audio-visual imagery, from wonders of the natural world to the astounding explorations of the fossil record – and leaves the audience with “Principles from Pre-history” – powerful lessons for your future.
THE ECONOMICS OF INFORMATION This presentation (or workshop) looks at the business implications of the chaotic marriage of information technology and the global de-regulating economy, and asks: What did the Egyptian gods of order and chaos know that we have still to learn? What are the challenges presented by the new economic context as we move from 'the economics of scarcity' to the 'economics of plenty'? What are the implications for policymakers, governments, business and individuals? What are the implications of the technology revolution on the world economy? Is information technology in a 'feeding frenzy' - thriving on globalisation and industry de-regulation? Is the 'new economy' an unstoppable vortex of volatility or are there underlying factors that can help us understand the future?
