Confessions Of A Corporate Futurist: Coming Trends That Will Revolutionize Your Business

No one knows what the future holds and despite our best efforts to prepare for the unknown, the future plays out in unexpected ways.

Connelly first covers both broad, “bird’s-eye view” trends like declining fertility rates, the global talent shortage, China and India, and the rising female frontier. She then moves to ground-level trends like ethical consumption and access versus ownership to assets. She takes these concepts and applies them to how consumers are acting today and will be in the near future, and her unsurpassed grasp on the future of business proves invaluable as she helps audiences take advantage of what’s next.
