Keynote by Speaker Anders Sorman-Nilsson: 2nd Renaissance

If digital disruption was the dress rehearsal for your business model’s transformation, COVID19 became the burning platform. By now, we know that this virus has wreaked havoc on lives and livelihoods. None of us, professional, essential worker or otherwise, has been immune to either type of future shock.

But what does the world beyond the pandemic look like? And how do we as humans prepare ourselves for it?

Will we be going back to the status quo after lockdowns ease, or will we be forever transformed? What will we value, and how will we be spending our disposable income? What technologies are here to stay? Will we be migrating back into cities for work, or stay at home? Will the physical and virtual continue to blend? Will frugality be the new norm? What consumer behaviour will shape the commerce of tomorrow?

Keynote by Speaker Anders Sorman-Nilsson: Digilogue

How to win the digital minds and analogue hearts of tomorrow's customers.

As some organisations careen recklessly into the digital future and others are left behind by remaining steeped in the ways of old, thought leaders are coming to realise there is an important middle ground. Most often that’s where your customers and clients want you to be, the place where digital and analogue converge - the ‘digilogue’. In the digilogue it is understood that digital satisfies a customer’s mind while analogue soothes the heart.

KNOWING WHERE THIS PLACE IS DEMANDS:

An understanding of the parts of your business that simply cannot be allowed to go digital.

An intimate knowledge of the customer experience, of the touch points that thrill them, that speak to their hearts and not their heads.

An understanding of how your organisation tells its story to its public.

A recognition of the artisanal skill, or customer service, that keeps customers coming back.

Every business must know where its middle ground lies, where the old-school artisan meets the efficiency and power of the future. This customised presentation will help your

GLOBAL TRENDS THAT WILL DISRUPT YOUR EXISTENCE.

Unique perspectives on disruptive trends in generations, innovation and communication

Speaker Anders Sorman-Nilsson is an expert on trends in innovations, generations and communications

Change doesn’t care whether you like it or not - it does not need your permission.

We constantly upgrade, exchange and replace our software because we know that rusty circuitry, limited bandwidth and old technology won’t suffice in the future. Why then, are we so reluctant to apply the same upgrades and changes to our thinking? The rapid pace of change in every industry means that we need to constantly be upgrading our personal, organisational and leadership software.

There is only one way to make these upgrades, and it is to understand how oncoming trends are likely to affect your organization, so you can act swiftly whenever the next tidal wave of information crashes on your shores. How would your company be different if your staff was inspired by change, rather than paralysed and fearful of it? Or if your leaders could raise performance levels to meet the oncoming generations, to do more with less, and to innovate their way into the future? Or better still, if you knew which trends were impacting your industry today and how to favourably position your thinking for the future?
