Beneath the surface of normalcy lies a hidden layer of complexity. No where is that more true than what is happening within the world of golf.
Next month, I'll be the opening keynote speaker for the [Quintiq World Tour](http://www.quintiq.com/world-tour-2017/philadelphia.html) in Philadelphia -- they're an organization that specializes in software to help to manage complexity! I promised them I would do a little video teaser for the conference. I was a bit busy at the time -- it's summertime! -- but I got it done! #golfiswork

Here's my keynote description:
**Accelerating the Business in an Era of Fast Change**
Industries are being transformed by a world of constant, relentless change, and the future belongs to those who are fast. Understanding, preparing for, and managing the growing complexity in your supply chain and operations will increasingly become the challenge of our time. Whether it’s fast business model disruption, the impact of hyper-connectivity through the Internet of Things, or faster transformation of entire industries through advancements such as 3D printing and self-driving vehicles -- wherever you look, there are undeniable, transformative forces at work.
Join us as futurist Jim Carroll takes us on a voyage of the transformative trends of our time, and the strategies that organizations are pursuing to master fast change. Jim speaks to organizations worldwide on issues of future trends, disruption, and innovation. His clients include NASA, Disney, the Swiss Innovation Forum, the National Australia Bank and Nikon.
