A Brief History of the Future: Marketing Like a Human in an Age of Bits & BotsCarmen Hill
A look at what we might expect from marketing in 2025, as millennials dominate the workforce and the digital natives of Generation Z graduate from college and begin their careers. Presented to a conference focused on continuing legal education (ACLEA), this talk looks at the future through the lens of law firm marketing. Marketers are always chasing the latest technology to reach consumers, but those same consumers always find new ways to filter marketing out: from the mute button to ad blockers. No matter what kind of technology is available in 2025, the best marketing will still be built on human-to-human relationships.

Hidden organisations of influence world in 2030Future Agenda
Hidden Organisations of Influence
The growth in globally influential, yet unaccountable, organisations that are able to undertake surveillance, steer agendas and shape government policy has wider impact.
In theory it has never been so difficult to remain below the radar. 24/7 news, constant surveillance and demands for greater accountability make it is seemingly impossible for any corporate, political or, on occasion, personal activity to go unnoticed. And yet widespread concerns about the number of increasingly influential, unaccountable, commercially driven organisations that are operating with rapidly expanding reach were often expressed during recent workshops. True, wealthy individuals and organisations have long had a disproportionate influence over elected representatives but the amount of money some companies now have to spend is unprecedented. Furthermore, new technologies have made it easier for others to access information, exert influence and move funds around the world in ways which are almost impossible to trace. The truth is they can operate effectively and invisibly without being restricted by the traditional checks and balances. At a time when calls for greater transparency are escalating it seems that meaningful oversight is lacking.

Carat Trends 2021 - The Year of Emotionally Intelligent Marketingdentsu
In 1970 American writer and futurist Alvin Toffler wrote his best-selling book Future Shock. The book defined the phrase as a certain psychological state of individuals and entire societies brought about by a personal perception of “too much change in too short a period of time”.
2020 has undoubtedly been that year.
The world feels like a very different place to the end of the previous decade. For brands, the volatile times mean a greater need for emotional intelligence; listening and understanding how their consumers feel and helping people navigate the new world through their products, services and actions.
Management has served us well. Since the Industrial Revolution it has paved the way for a sustained and accelerating rise in living standards unheard of and unforeseen. But with the ‘digital revolution’, we are entering
a new era where the logic of industrial-age organisation has lost its purchase.

Procurement In 2025: Transparency - Procurement Leaders
1. Procurement In 2025: Transparency - Procurement Leaders
In this latest in a series of posts, Procurement Leaders once again invites Ernst & Young's Carlos
Alvarenga to evaluate what might be some of the key levers for the function, a decade in the future.
Â
The last 10 years have seen the rise of two seriously disruptive, and deeply related, social
phenomena. The first is the arrival of social technologies, such as Twitter, Facebook and the iPhone.
The second is the decreasing importance that most people (but especially the under-20s) are placing
on personal and institutional privacy. With the arrival of Google Glass and its "always on" social
interaction capabilities, corporations are about to enter a new and unknown stage of social
transparency where all information is shareable and personal privacy is a largely alien concept to
specific emerging demographic groups and even entire nations.
Â
As one consumer CPO put it: "Today's youngest kids in China and the U.S. will grow up with no
hang-ups about sharing their life stories with the outside the world, and they will expect the outside
world to return the favor."
Â
In this new society, the corporation, which to outsiders in the past was often thought of as a 'black
box', will find that the box suddenly has several windows and that outside those windows is a curious
world looking in.
Â
Questions about supply source location and pricing, which today are often troubling and disruptive
to many procurement organizations, will become a normal part of the conversation with consumers,
regulators and activists. Moreover, the idea of a 'corporate secret' may itself seem increasingly
archaic.
Â
If people will be willing to 'live life out loud', then corporations will be expected to do the same. For
example, Google Glass will enable supplier inspections and negotiations to be seen in real time by
outsiders. Is it that hard to imagine a world in which regulators force procurement teams to
broadcast specific activities in real time to ensure compliance?
Â
Another social trend that has started -- the idea of preemptive action ahead of unwanted activity --
has already entered the regulatory lexicon, and suddenly procurement organizations could find
2. themselves having to show that their bidding and sourcing activities are transparent even where no
suspicion of wrong-doing existed in the past. Indeed, where and when social transparency becomes
the norm, any form of opaqueness may come to be seen as possibly suspicious.
Â
Along the same lines, the concept of governmental nudging, which has taken hold most famously in
the Scandinavian countries and most recently in the UK, will cross into the US. In this concept, the
government does not legislate many social changes; rather, it 'nudges' them along via economic
stimuli and penalties. As with people, corporations will find themselves 'nudged' in certain directions
by government and social agents, and procurement will once again find itself the recipient of many
of these mandates.
Â
The social evolutions noted above will also have significant changes in the role played by the CPO at
the most famous (and infamous) corporations, since transparency pressures will increasingly make
the CPO role a visible one in the social landscape. Historically, the role of the procurement executive
was an internal one, and few CPOs were public faces of the corporation. That model began to change
in the 2000s and will continue to change in the coming decade.
Â
By 2025 the best CPOs will be well-known corporate figures, able to lead discussions with
consumers, regulators and the press an all aspects of procurement activities in the firm. For the
teams that support these leaders, life and work will be very different, and they should expect that
many processes and events that today are internal will, in the future, take place on a real-time social
stage with millions, even billions, of people watching.
