With Flux Trends:
The New Rules of Engagement – How to Make Real Connections in Times of Fake News, Robot Trolls And Jaded Consumers
This talk is designed to help leaders, marketers, advertisers, PR, communications, media and sales professionals understand the future of connection with human (and not so human customers). If your business involves developing lasting relationships with individuals – or persuading anyone to purchase a product or buy into an idea – you need to understand the trends unpacked in this talk, which covers everything from brandjacking and morality marketing to social cooling and ad-fakery.
How to Train Your Cyborg – The Manager’s Guide to the Rise of the Machines
What does it mean to be human in the midst of the rise of the machines? This presentation looks at the effect of big data, bio-rights, robot rights, cyborgs, AI, The Singularity and “Transhumanism” on us humans, and on the businesses that employ and sell to us. You will discover why the human touch is still the best way to “only connect” and that technological tools still have to meet core needs and solve real problems.
FROM POSTALGIA TO PURPOSE
Postalgia sets in when we lose faith in the future and start to believe the here and now is as good as it gets. Postalgia is dangerous in that it is essentially nihilist. If you or your team, employees or customers believe that tomorrow will be no better – or worse – than today, there is no point in planning for the future, and no point in planning or living for anything other than short-term amusement. In other words, postalgia sets in when we lose our purpose and no longer see anything worth progressing towards. This talk is designed to help you overcome the inertia of postalgia in your organisation and your own life as a leader and look to the future with purpose.
