Technology is playing an increasing role in network building by enabling new ways of connecting citizens with government and each other. This is driving a "triple reset" economically, socially, and politically. Socially, citizens expect more mobile services and frequent opportunities to learn. Economically, issues like banking crises and green agendas are globalizing competition. Politically, governments must find new ways to connect with and get feedback from citizens. Organizations that do not adopt new technologies risk disruption. Harnessing human skills through collaboration is the new promise, but impacts on business models and challenges for partners must be considered.

Trends and insights in a changing world
The document discusses trends impacting the social sector in a changing world. It notes that 23% of organizations reported a difficult year in 2018, with medium-sized organizations facing the most challenges. Opportunities for growth, collaboration, and demonstrating impact were identified. Political and economic uncertainties like Brexit, austerity measures, and slow wage growth were highlighted as factors. An aging population and rising social needs, changing communities, and issues like populism were also discussed. The document concludes that organizations must adapt to changing consumer behavior and new technologies to survive in this environment.
Module 03 The Case for Change
This document discusses factors driving the need for change in government, including globalization, new technologies, environmental concerns, and social/political shifts. It notes that governments now face "wicked problems" that are complex and lack clear solutions. To respond, governments will need to be dynamic, innovative, and involve stakeholders to ask the right questions. The presentation encourages analyzing the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats governments face in light of these changing conditions.

Analisis Kebijakan Publik - Kasus
This document discusses the problems facing Jakarta, Indonesia related to overurbanization and traffic congestion. It analyzes the causes such as population growth, lack of infrastructure development, and mismanagement. The main solution proposed is moving Indonesia's capital to another region to help solve Jakarta's problems and promote development in other areas of the country. However, doing so would require huge investments and could result in new issues emerging if not properly planned and implemented.

Post industrialization
1. Societies have historically met basic needs and organized themselves in different ways based on factors like available resources and technology.
2. As societies developed more permanent settlements and agriculture, social structures like families, divisions of labor, and hierarchies emerged.
3. The industrial revolution led to further changes including mechanization, urbanization, and the need for a literate workforce with different skills.
The Role of Welfare States in Making Global Cities Liveable: Reflections of L...
The document discusses the role of welfare states in making global cities like London liveable. It explores how global cities influence national welfare debates due to their economic power and differing social contexts. London faces special challenges as a global city, with issues like high income inequality, poverty rates, housing costs and lack of income protection that differ from the rest of the UK. While welfare services are important for London, its unique environment as a global city presents complex governance challenges for its welfare state.

Changing the frame: from social innovation to civic startups
The document discusses civic startups and how they can disrupt the large but outdated government IT market. It notes that civic startups can build tools to help communities and governments communicate better to tackle issues like disaster recovery and blight. The document emphasizes that civic startups have an opportunity to change the game by teaching citizens and governments to long for innovative technological solutions through community-powered platforms.
The future of work ( my takeaways from the e dx course )
The idea that “machines are coming to take our jobs” has been a concern for hundreds of years—at least since the industrialization of weaving in the early 18th Century, a technological leap that both raised productivity and fears that thousands of workers would be thrown out on the streets. Innovations and technological progress have caused disruption, but they have created more prosperity than they have destroyed. Yet today, we are riding a new wave of uncertainty as the pace of innovation continues to accelerate and technology affects every part of our lives.

Second Life is a 3D virtual world launched in 2003 that is built and owned by its residents. It differs from games in that there are no set goals or rules. Over 11 million users have accounts and around 25,000-50,000 residents are online at once. Educational institutions and businesses use it for collaboration, exploration, and interaction in a virtual space. Technical requirements include a high-speed internet connection and capable computer hardware. Many virtual worlds now exist for different age groups and purposes.
Learning Journey invite
The document is an invitation to an insight journey focused on excluded young people, sponsored by The Innovation Exchange. The Innovation Exchange aims to connect the third sector and public sector to foster collaborative innovation around social challenges, with existing focus areas including excluded young people and independent living. The status quo is not an option and conventional thinking ignores disruptions, so the insight journey will examine the future of services for excluded young people.
Top Quotes - Tools & Weapons
This document discusses the power and responsibilities that come with digital technologies and artificial intelligence. It notes that while technology provides benefits, it can also be used as a weapon if misused. Companies creating technology must accept greater responsibility, but governments also need to take action through regulation. The document emphasizes that technology has changed the world significantly and highlights issues around privacy, education, ethics, and the jobs and industries that may be created or changed by AI.
Evolution of Latam Measurement #FOMLA
This document summarizes generational characteristics and media consumption trends across generations. It discusses how older generations (Boomers and Gen X) had more passive consumption of mass media while younger generations (Y and Z) are more participatory across transmedia platforms. While some media like print were declared dead by new platforms, most traditional media have persisted alongside new options. The document also discusses the concepts of "liquid modernity" where individuals must be flexible and willing to change commitments quickly to pursue different opportunities. It advocates that the advertising industry needs to capitalize on available technology and use multi-media, single source data to promote brands across silos and leverage word-of-mouth on social media.
Technology & The Liberal Arts in Action
The document discusses the relationship between technology and liberal arts. It notes how technology is reshaping society by disrupting industries like publishing, media, and the post office. It argues that studying liberal arts teaches important values and skills for answering questions about how technology should develop and how it will reshape society. It also suggests that technology can enable putting liberal arts values into action, and that studying both technology and liberal arts can support initiatives like enabling economic development or strengthening civic participation.

Mass media has a significant influence on modern culture, allowing people to become famous on a large scale. It keeps society informed and helps build communities, but can also enable idleness and obesity from excessive TV watching. New forms of media like the internet and social media are helpful for networking but also make bullying easier due to online anonymity.

Future Risk - Emerging global and corporate challenges 05 02 17
Over the past few months we have been running a number of workshops focused on helping organisations to identify and develop responses to emerging global and corporate risks. Working with companies, government agencies and advisory groups, we have been interrogating the insights from the Future Agenda programme to highlight those issues that provide the greatest potential challenge and also could have the most significant impact going forward. At a time when growing uncertainty and ambiguity are top of mind for many, we thought a brief summary of the most frequent topics being explored may be of wider interest.
In this summary we have therefore highlighted ten key global risks and ten key corporate risks that multiple organisations are seeing as high priority / impact for the next decade:
Ten Global Risks
• Accelerating displacement and the increase in migration
• Air pollution increasing in many urban environments
• A new world order driven by changing interests and relationships
• Broader cyber terrorism moving from the virtual to physical world
• Closing the inequality gap and balance equity and autonomy
• Flooded cities as the most visible impact of climate change
• Global pandemics stressing public health systems
• Key resource constraints driven by economic and political tensions
• Rising youth unemployment creating a lost generation
• Spiraling debt as a precursor to another major financial crisis
Ten Corporate Risks
• Continuous proof of loyalty to consumers required from brands
• Declining government influence as cities, networks and multinationals lead
• Full cost and having to account and pay for the true impact of activities
• Interconnected systems and the IoT increasing business vulnerability
• Managing data risk driving the need for greater security
• Regulation changing rapidly in its reach, its character and its focus
• Speed to scale accelerating and proving more disruptive impact
• Truth and illusion shifting view of what is credible and why
• The human touch being increasingly important in a digital world
• The rise of machines as AI and automation are both threat and opportunity
While not the same top issues for every organisation, these hopefully help to provide useful insight and context. More detailed information on many of these is available on the future agenda website www.futureagenda.org
Disruptive trends shaping the business landscape Singapore - 21 Aug 2019
Future Business Trends
How will global trends disrupt business in the next decade?
Ahead of the first of three speeches / workshops in Singapore over the next few months, this is an overview of some of the key potential drivers of change for businesses.
After some up-front context on foresight it addresses four major area of potential disruption
• The Future Consumer
• Purpose of the Company
• Digital Business
• Future Organisation
If you would like more detail on any of these issues or to know more about the workshops, do not hesitate to get in touch.

The presentation addresses the issue of changing nature of work in the context of technological advancements, Industry 4.0, AI, ML and VUCA world.
The Landscape for Grantmaking in 2043
The document discusses how emerging technologies will disrupt philanthropy over the next 25 years. It outlines several disruptive technologies like artificial intelligence, blockchain, and the internet of things that will change the way organizations operate and create new social problems to address. It also discusses challenges like algorithmic bias, filter bubbles dividing public discourse, challenges to civil society from closing civic spaces, and implications of trends like automation threatening jobs, urbanization shifting power to cities, and an aging population. The document advocates for grantmakers and charities to start preparing for these changes by exploring new opportunities to achieve their missions, understanding the impacts on their organizations, and helping shape debates around future challenges.
Emerging trends in infrastructure
On the streets, on social networks and at the ballot box, people are voicing their discontent. They are worried about the environment. They are demanding social equality. They are advocating for better living and working conditions. And they are reacting to perceived institutional injustices. In short, they are angry at their leaders and they are making sure their voices are heard. This is not about a handful of radicals shouting from the wilderness. What we are witnessing is a massive shift in the ‘middle’. Indeed, the voices on the fringes of these issues largely remain shrill and extreme. What is changing is the quiet chorus of voices that make up the middle ground (i.e., the average voter).
For many governments, this upswelling of discontent could not be happening at a worse time. Public budgets are highly constrained (either by debt or by borrowing limits). Technologies are rapidly changing. New risks are emerging. And planning is becoming infinitely more complex. The pace of response from governments is proving to be inadequate.
Ten Trends To Watch
The document identifies 10 trends that will profoundly shape business in the coming years:
1. Economic activity will shift globally with Asia's GDP nearly converging with Western Europe's in the next 20 years. Manufacturing and services will shift more dramatically.
2. Public sector activities will grow to support aging populations, requiring productivity gains to avoid high taxes.
3. Almost a billion new consumers will enter global markets in emerging economies, expanding spending power outside the West.
4. Technological connectivity will transform how people live and interact by enabling global, instant communication and new types of relationships.
5. The battle for talent will shift as developing countries produce more university graduates than developed ones.
6
Work and Enterprise - A New Future
The document discusses the changing skills landscape and opportunities for social enterprises. It notes that skills, the generation Y population, technology, and welfare reform are changing the economy. It argues that by helping people transform dreams into meaningful work, entire communities' economic fortunes could be improved. It highlights opportunities for social enterprises to help identify and match skills to opportunities through talent management programs.
Readiness for network world
The document provides an overview of a guide for developing countries to assess their readiness to participate in the networked world. It discusses the benefits of participation, including new opportunities for economic and social development. The guide evaluates 19 categories across 5 groups related to a community's network access, networked learning, networked society, networked economy, and network policy. It is intended to help communities understand their current state of preparedness and identify strategic priorities to better capture opportunities in the digital age.

Future of work employability and digital skills nov 2020
Future of Work, Employability and Digital Skills
As the world of work changes, how will organisations, society and individuals adapt to ensure that the current and the next generation will be able to acquire the skills necessary for future jobs? Building on previous Future Agenda research that focussed on key policy areas primarily in the Asian market and, more recently, an updated outlook on the future of work and skills development developed in partnership with the University of Bristol, School of Management, we are very pleased to be starting a new phase of research. As well as an analysis of the future of work, this will specifically explore the shifting nature of employability and how and where digital skills will have impact.
Over the next few months, expert views from across Europe will be shared in order to develop a richer understanding of key issues and how they vary across different jurisdictions. As with all Future Agenda projects, the aim is to challenge assumptions, identify emerging trends and build an informed assessment of the changes ahead and their implications for policy and action.
If you would like to be involved and add your views into the mix, please get in touch.
2014: Crunch Time!
The document summarizes 14 domains that are reaching a point of disruption and fundamental change due to accelerating technological and social shifts. These domains include work, retail, media, money, privacy, government, education, climate, interfaces, collaboration, social divide, artificial intelligence, warfare, and self-creation. For each domain, the document provides a brief analysis of the changes underway and suggests potential responses to the disruption, emphasizing the need for action, adaptation, and developing skills to thrive in the new environment.
Future of Work and Business
Assembled set of insights for an upcoming Future of Work and Business session to be held in Windsor, UK on 7 July and kindly hosted by Skill Capital.
Connect To Survive - The Digital Divide
The document discusses several topics related to connecting and surviving the digital divide:
1. It outlines how Web 2.0 tools like blogs, social networks, and content sharing platforms have created a new knowledge paradigm where value is created through collaboration and connectivity. Those who do not embrace these changes may become isolated.
2. It examines how different generations have varying levels of digital literacy and expectations of how technology should be used. This creates challenges for organizations with multigenerational workforces.
3. It notes that while online consultation can increase participation, barriers like age, income, and skills still contribute to a "digital divide." Not all groups are equally able to engage through digital means alone.
The path to 2025

2014_Trends_Global_Engagement_v11_lr
Global employee engagement increased slightly to 61% overall in 2013 as the global economy stabilized. However, perceptions of the employee value proposition have decreased, with fewer employees seeing a long-term path or compelling value with their current employer. Engagement levels and economic trends vary significantly between emerging and mature markets. Best employer companies that display strong leadership, reputation, performance orientation and engagement outperform average companies on key financial metrics like revenue growth and shareholder value, even those with only top quartile engagement levels. Leaders play a key role in driving engagement throughout organizations.

The Minister of Public Administration and Communication of Trinidad and Tobago presents on the results of the WEF GITR 2016Seizing opportunities with AI in the cognitive economy
Citizens increasingly expect that they own their
own data.2
They also expect heightened service
standards and stewardship from Government.
Yes, most discussions around AI center around
the “potentially devastating negative use
cases and unintended consequences” but
leaders recognize that technology-inspired,
society-scale innovation now fueled by data
is (again) changing life as we know it.
Leaders also see similar patterns from the early
internet days and not only want to transform
the business of government, but to also enable
citizens to navigate the transition well and position
to seize the exponential opportunities of the
new era. All are now asking critical questions
regarding data and its nascent foundations:
• Who owns the ‘data’ in big data?
• Where does big data stop and privacy start?
