4Changing world

affecting organizations know
no borders or markets and
affect every part of society
today

trends, uncertainties and
surprises have the potential to

5Growing uncertainty
⮚ New surprises impact on us
all far faster, and more
profoundly, than we might
think creating new
possibilities
e.g. pandemics, changing weather
conditions, terrorist events, health
crises, social values, economic and
political uncertainties and
technological advance.

new challenges including:

increasingly operating at the
forefront and cutting edge of their
industries. Where do you stand?
“… the advanced civilization that
we should really worry about
is one that is just 15 minutes ahead.
… [not light years in the future]”
Woody Allen
We help you stay ahead of rivals

7Winning performances
⮚ Those who spot new issues and
exploit them early have competitive
advantage over their less prepared
rivals
⮚ Studies show that those that create
or join a new market just before it
emerges are those achieving the best
performance
⮚ How do they know when to join or
pay attention and get that 15 minute
advantage?
We help you to know when to change

help them survive and thrive in an
