Jim Carroll's keynote challenged CEOs and senior leaders from finance, construction and infrastructure to confront accelerating disruption at a late-night executive event at San Francisco's de Young Museum. The keynote, "Speed — Not History — Defined Success," laid out the challenge and the path forward. Scale, history and capital created confidence, but none of them protected a leadership team from technologies and competitors moving faster. Six trends are shaping that shift. 3D Printing. New production methods were compressing design-to-production cycles and challenging legacy asset assumptions. Autonomous Mobility. Self-driving technologies were redefining transportation, logistics and the value of physical infrastructure. Virtual Reality. Spatial tools were changing design, customer experience, training and how leaders visualized future assets. Internet Of Things. Connected assets were generating continuous data and making once-static products and infrastructure intelligent. Business Model Disruption. Technology was changing who creates value, how it is delivered and where profit pools emerge. Organizational Speed. In an era of acceleration, the advantage was shifting toward organizations that could decide and execute faster. In an era of acceleration, Jim told the San Francisco audience, the advantage shifts from the biggest organization to the fastest one. The speed of your future, Jim told the assembled executives, is now determined by those who are faster than you. Explore more keynote case studies.
