Working backwards from the Future

Transformative technologies: ultra-mobile connectivity, big data, Internet-of-Things, artificial intelligence, automation…

1765: Engines for the Body

2014: Engines for the Brain

My estimate: 80% of all Internet Traffic by 2020 will be mobile

“An additional 3 billion+ new minds entering the global economy will be

empowered with dematerialized,

demonetized and democratized technologies”

Continuing acceleration of exponential technologies based on Moore's law:

Super-Computing, Networks & Sensors, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, Digital /

3D Manufacturing, Bio-Engineering

A huge economic shift…Analog, Pre-Digital,

Pre-Social / Mobile / Cloud Society

Runs on Oil i.e Fossil Fuels

& Natural Resources

Runs on Data, Software,

Algorithms…

“Software is eating the world” (Marc Andreessen)

“Inevitable transfer of value from traditional companies to software companies”

Almost everything that can be digitised and / or

automated… will be

Anything that is not digitizable becomes even more valuable

Digitization: huge impact on cities, construction, transportation

Yet, human i.e. social and emotional intelligence still requires an embodied presence

Exponential technologies will create many ’HellVen’ challenges

We are moving towards distributed, decentralized, networked, interdependent, circular: Media ➲ Communications ➲ Financial Services ➲ Education ➲

Energy ➲ Transport ➲ Construction ➲ Medical & Health

Network effects will become even more crucial to success

The Future: Hyper-Collaboration. Interdependence. Ecosystems.

Technology Innovation + Changes in Consumption + Policy Shifts will tackle Climate Change

Technology is becoming actually intelligent

Heading towards a world of abundance: media, content, data, knowledge, transport and tourism, education…

Digitization and automation will generate even more abundance

Scarcity inside

Abundance outside

GenY / Z and the ‘Global Brain’

‘Egosystems’ to Ecosystems

Sustainable Responsable Renewable

Interdependence. Circular Ecosystems.

Interdependence brings the end of silos

Technology, Software Big Data, AI, IoT…

Breaking (outmoded) rules is now a requirement for success

What can we learn from pioneering ‘exponential organizations’ ?Source: qz.com

10x thinking

In a digital, networked and interdependent society with increasing abundance Sustainable will become the new Profitable

Transformation … not just ‘change’

Leadership means going beyond the obvious
