Here’s a few questions you can challenge yourself with:

- Are your prepared for hyper-innovation and rapid time to market?

- Do you actually know what major trends will affect your industry, profession and career in the next five years?

- Are you frustrated by the lack of decisiveness that surrounds you, and need to focus your team on the future with passion and purpose?

- Have you really come to accept that “volatility is the new normal,” and have you structured yourself to deal with this reality?

- Do you really understand how your quickly customers are changing as they take more control of your brand image through the online social networks in which they participate?

- Do you really know what will be expected in your job 10 years from now?

- Could you define the biggest threat to your company five years out?

- Have you thought about where you need to establish new partnerships in order that you can work smarter, better and faster?

- Are you ready for a smarter-type-of-thing?

- Are you someone who makes things happen — or do you sit back and wonder, “whoah, what happened?”

A good starting list to challenge yourself as the future continues to approach you with increasing acceleration!
