I’ve been asked to keynote this event on March 30th. My session description: “We live in an era of unprecedented and relentless change. The emergence of China as a super-power; hyper-innovation and business market turmoil; constant career change and rapid scientific advances. Competition is changing overnight, and product lifecycles often last for just a few months. Permanence has been torn asunder. We are in a time that demands a new agility and flexibility: leaders must have the skill and insight to prepare for a future that is rushing at them faster than ever before. Join international futurist, trends and innovation expert Jim Carroll, as he shares his insight into the key methods by which organizations are leveraging technology in order to compete effectively in the rapidly changing economy of the 21st century.”

Two weeks out? An event in Key Largo for a liquor distributor, followed by a telecom conference in Montreal, followed by events with SAP in Atlanta, Houston and San Jose, with a keynote to horticultural group sandwiched in-between…
Whew!
The key theme / trend emering here is that all these folks are looking for exactly what I provide — unique insight into the challenging issues of today, with guidance that is specific, relevant and practical as to how to thrive and survive these challenging and turbulent times….
