Learn the role entrepreneurs play in our economy today and why young people are falling out of the system in droves. College is not the golden ticket it once was. With 80% of college graduates working in fields they didn't study and paying down an average of $30K in student debt, we are losing a generation before they have a chance to be innovative. We need problem solvers to clean up severe global issues. Supporting entrepreneurs while they are still in school with tools and mentoring to help them bypass the many pitfalls that prevent them from starting their own business is the topic of this slideshare.
The following slides provide the background data and information that have informed the future trends identified under the population theme. This presentation should be viewed alongside those for the other themes in order for the wider picture to be understood.
Overview of income trends in the state of Oregon. Comparing total personal income, wages, transfer payments over time and across regions within Oregon. Assessing the Great Recession's impact on median family incomes in the Portland and Salem regions. Also showing how to apply Census and BEA income data to similar topics and pair with other data sources, like housing costs, household debt, and job polarization.

Latest findings from Policy in Practice's data led investigation into the causes and consequences of poverty in London were presented on 20 September 2018.
We recently shared the latest findings from our pan-london analysis of living standards, tracking 600,000 low income families across 19 London boroughs over two years. The work is unique in its use of large scale administrative data, linked over time, and its ability to look forward at poverty projections for individual households. The approach is being used by a dozen local authorities across the UK to target support.
Highlights from Phase Three include:
Low income Londoners are becoming less financially resilient. The proportion of Londoners with low financial resilience has grown by 20% in the last two years, and will continue to grow through to 2020
Employment helps build financial resilience. Employment is the main driver of people improving their financial resilience; for people affected, welfare reforms are a driver of lower resilience, but they don’t tell the full story
Living standards fluctuate. Over two years a quarter of low income households in work lost their job at least once; improving job stability can help build resilience
The future isn’t bright. Londoners on low incomes face a bleak future with an average drop in their disposable income of £100 p/w if rents and other livings costs continue to rise as expected.

Despite recent efforts to equalize the treatment of men and women in the pension system design in many countries, the gender gap in pensions persists. This gap contributes to old-age income inequality in Europe and beyond. The interplay of pension and family policies has a major impact on mitigating the gender gap in pensions.

General perception that the wave of post war baby boomers are heading towards retirement age now and that this will have a significant (and in some people’s minds, catastrophic) impact on our communities. There will be a huge impost on our aged care services, a mismatch between the number of people working and the number of people dependent on their taxes, and there will be a skills shortage as the baby boomers leave the work force in droves.
This view is often accompanied by a sense of inevitability – as if this course was set for us 60 years ago and there’s nothing we can do about it.
At .id, our business is to understand population change, and how populations are likely to change into the future. We do this so that local government can plan effectively for these changes. Our research shows that there has been a significant population shift in Australia over the last five years, and that the rhetoric around the aging of the baby boomers may no longer be serving us well.
We sometimes hear the story that rural and regional towns are in decline - that their populations are ageing as they lose their youth to metropolitan centres of work and play. And while that narrative is true for some regional towns, in this piece, Glenn looks at three towns in rural and regional Victoria, to show how the demographic story varies from place to place.
Coined in the 1980’s, the VUCA acronym has been an
apt summary of recent decades (Volatility, Uncertainty,
Complexity and Ambiguity). In 2018 at the World Economic
Forum, the Prime Minister of Canada highlighted the
increasing acceleration of the trends with his statement: “The
pace of change has never been this fast, yet it will never be
this slow again”. Yet all of this was before the global COVID-19
pandemic further disrupted and transformed our times.
In such times, analysis of the trends and regular scans of
the horizon is essential to thrive amidst the transformations.
The primary characteristic of a leader, which enables the
important strengths of vision and decisiveness, is foresight.
The reason they can lead is that, having understood the
trends, they are able to see things not just as they are, but as
they will be.
At McCrindle we exist to empower human flourishing by
equipping leaders with research-based insight. Indeed
the leader with the honed characteristic of foresight, and
equipped with evidence-based insight is able to do more than
just see the future, they take up the great responsibility to
shape it.
We trust this report will help you understand the times,
prepare you for the emerging megatrends, and equip you to
lead and grow your team, community and organisation with
both humility and confidence.

Objective methodology for the valuation of businesses or business units that are difficult to value using conventional methods - e.g. startups, new technologies
How do you place a value on a business where there is no relevant historical data? This question regularly appears in startup ventures, or where there is a new development in an existing business - perhaps in response to a new technology or process. Without historical financial data - or where this is misleading - the SLC Matrix is an attempt to provide a systematic and objective framework - with flexibility - that enables some defensible logic and intellectual rigour to be used despite the lack of past data. It's free for you to use, or modify to fit your circumstances

PowerPoint Apocalypse | I love the smell of presentations in the morningDavid Christensen
Lt Col Bill Kilgore was famous for his statement 'I love the smell or napalm in the morning'.
Like him or loathe him, he had one laudable characteristic - a single minded focus on a victorious outcome, regardless of the cost.
This theme is echoed today by one of the world's leading presentation designers, David Christensen, equally famous for his 'I live the smell of presentations in the morning.'
But is this just coincidence, or could there be more to this connection ... ?
Putting together a pitch recently to assist a potential client with a PowerPoint project, and I thought I needed to make the point very clearly why I should be appointed. So I made a very simple comparison between the typical audience reaction to a presentation I had not been involved with, alongside the typical audience response to something I have breathed life into. It's all very simple, really, and I just can't understand why people have trouble following this inexorable logic.

In the Adani-Hindenburg case, what is SEBI investigating.pptxAdani case
Adani SEBI investigation revealed that the latter had sought information from five foreign jurisdictions concerning the holdings of the firm’s foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in relation to the alleged violations of the MPS Regulations. Nevertheless, the economic interest of the twelve FPIs based in tax haven jurisdictions still needs to be determined. The Adani Group firms classed these FPIs as public shareholders. According to Hindenburg, FPIs were used to get around regulatory standards.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Australia 2019 – Key Population Trends in 5 Slid
David Christensen
david.d.christensen@gmail.com
2. 2
Australia’s 2016 Census, along
with recent Australian Bureau of
Statistics reports, provide some
food for thought for businesses
operating in Australia
These can be summarized in 5
slides …
3. 1. Population Growth
Australia’s Population Continues Steady Growth
• Australia’s national
average growth rate was
1.6% between 2011-
2016 and 1.4% since
1996
• Of the net increase of
1,971,00 between 2011-
2016 40% was
attributable to natural
increase (births/deaths)
and 60% to net overseas
migration
Business Implications
• The Australian population has
continued the same trend of the past
several decades, with a steady (but not
spectacular) annual population growth
of ~1.5%
• More than half of this growth is fuelled
by net overseas migration (with its own
set of implications) and continuation of
this trend is naturally subject to political
and other factors
• These factors notwithstanding, there is
every confidence that the trend of
steady annual net population growth
across the country in the region of 1.5%
CAGR will continue in the foreseeable
future
• The origins of much of this growth (i.e.
country of emigration) and destination
(i.e. by State and Capital City vs Region)
may, however, have a differing future
trajectory as discussed in later slides

4. 2. Aging Population
Australia’s Population Continues to Age
• The median age for the Australian population in 2016 was
37.3 years – up from a median of 34.0 years in 1996
• Australians aged 65 and over now comprise 15.2% of the
population, compared with 12.0% in 1996
• The percentage Australians 85 and over has almost doubled
over 20 years from 1.1% in 1996 to 2.0% in 2016
• Greater Capital Cities are in general ‘younger’ than the rest
of the country
Business Implications
• As the average age of Australia’s population
continues to rise (in line with the rest of the
developing world) this will increasingly create
both pressures and opportunities for a wide range
of businesses
• There will be an increasing number as well as
proportion of the population who are of
retirement age (65 and over)
• In addition to this pure demographic shift, the
nature of those now reaching and entering
retirement age (‘Baby Boomers’ – born between
1946 and 1964) are expected to take with them a
different set of values and expectations than
retirees born in previous eras (pre-1945)
• Spending patterns, expectations, attitudes toward
products and services, mobility, financial
considerations of longer periods of retirement and
numerous other factors will all impact businesses
in the medium term
Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2016 Census 4
5. 3. Urbanisation
Metro Areas Growing at Almost Twice the Rate of
Regions
Business Implications
• Over the past 10 years, the total
Australian population has grown by
18.4%
• However the rate of growth of
Greater Capital Cities in each
State/Territory have been nearly
twice the rate of the rest of
State/Territory (21.7% vs 12.2%)
• This is particularly the case in the
two largest States of Victoria (which
had the largest population increase
over this period) and New South
Wales
• The trend is offset somewhat by
the growth of Queensland’s
secondary hubs of the Gold Coast
and Sunshine Coast
• It is important that businesses
recognise and adapt to the
continued disproportionate level of
population growth in Greater
Capital Cities versus regional and
secondary centres

6. 4. Changing Ethnic Composition
Proportion of Residents With an Asian Heritage Continues to Grow Business Implications
• 29% of Australia’s population was
born elsewhere
• Over the past 4 decades Australian
immigration has favoured Asia and
Oceania, rather than Europe -
resulting in a gradual change in the
Australian ethnic mix
• This change is exacerbated by
cultural attitudes that are passed
into later generations who, although
born in Australia, may still share
cultural views that are aligned with
their parents’ countries of origin
• Differing attitudes and behaviours in
relation to a wide variety of
products and services among
prevalent immigration cultures have
both positive and negative
ramifications for many businesses
and must be acknowledged
Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2016 Census 6
7. 5. Household Disposal Income
Source: ABS (6523.0 - Household Income and Wealth, Australia, 2015-16)
Stable Disposable Household Income Business Implications
• Stability in disposable household
income over recent years may mask
pressures that will become evident
over the period of 2018 and beyond
• According to the ABS, as of 2016
29% of Australian households are
classed as ‘over-indebted’ (in Sydney
and Melbourne 43%) and
households aged 25-34 are 62% and
35-44 are 51% over-indebted
respectively
• Households were spending 59% of
their weekly expenditure on ‘basics’
in 2016 (56% in 1984) – and this
does not account for energy price or
interest rate increases anticipated in
2017/8
• It is important that businesses
maintain a cautious outlook on
projected disposable household
income in the medium term future
7
In 2015-16, the average
equivalised disposable
household income was
$1,009 per week. This was
not significantly different
from the average in 2013-
14 ($1,029 per week), but
it was a significant
increase from the $843
per week a decade ago in
2005.
