10. Trends vs.
Fads
Prepared by: T. Flora Mae P. Abella

12. What is a Fad? What is Fashion? What is a
Trend?
Fad-an unconventional object, action, or
idea that a large number of people are
attached to for a very short time. Less
predictable than fashion.
Fashion-an enthusiastic attachment among
a large number of people for particular
styles of appearance or behavior.
Trend- a general direction in which
something is developing or changing.

13. Trends vs. Fads
• A fad is any form of behavior that
is intensely followed by a
population for a short period of
time. The behavior will rise
relatively quickly and fall
relatively quickly once the
perception of novelty is gone.

14. Fads
Fads come fast
and fade away

15. Trends vs. Fads
• A trend gets stronger over
time and does stick around.
• Trends have identifiable
and explainable rises that
are driven by audience
needs.

16. Trends vs. Fads
• In the words of the forever-
awesome Seth Godin,
“A trend gains power over time,
because it’s not merely part of a
moment, it’s a tool, a connector
that will become more valuable as
other people commit to engaging
in it.”

19. A trend map is a visual depiction of
relevant trends influencing the system
around a given topic. It is developed
using the collective knowledge and
experience of a group of people
familiar with a given
system and its context.

20. CONTEXTS · Understand an issue’s
landscape/context and history.
· Identify how various contextual
factors (e.g., social, political,
cultural, and economic
developments and events)
influence a topic.
CONNECTIONS · Explore relationships,
momentum, and energy among
the trends on the map.
PATTERNS · Identify key trends (e.g., elements
that we have identified prior) that
may influence the topic.
· Understand how policies or social
and cultural norms are changing.
· Understand the relationships
between outputs and outcomes
and external factors.
