Preparation Requires Knowledge of the Latest Future Trends

Posted: April 7, 2015 at 9:40 am

Orlando, FL (PRWEB) April 07, 2015

Safety doesnt happen by accident, neither does being prepared. Fire detectors. Smoke alarms. Heat detection and carbon monoxide alarms. Each of these devices helps allow businesses and individuals avoid some catastrophic event. In other words owning these devices equals being prepared. On a parallel front, preparation is what futurist Jack Uldrich does when he speaks to businesses about the top future trends and future-proofing their organizations.

Today, April 7th Uldrich will address Kidde Systems, a leader in smoke detection, heat detection and CO2 systems in Jacksonville, Florida.

Delivering his custom designed presentation, The Big AHA: How to Future-Proof Kidde Fire Systems Against the Trends Transforming Tomorrow Uldrich will discuss the top technological future trends affecting the industry that will transform Kiddes world of tomorrow. He will also identify concrete actions that his audience members can take today to future-proof themselves against the tides of tomorrow.

AHA is Uldrichs acronym for Awareness. Humility. Action. His work as an author and futurist has lead him to the conclusion that these three tenets make for great leadership. Hailed by Businessweek as Americas Chief Unlearning Officer he espouses, We live in a world where constant change is the only constant. New advances in technology bring forth exciting discoveries every day. But often lost in this new reality is the fact that organizations must unlearn old, obsolete knowledge and old ways of doing business, before they can seize tomorrows opportunities.

Uldrich speaks to a wide variety of organizations both large and small ranging from clients like Verizon Wireless Connected Technology Tour, ABB/Thomas and Betts New Product Launches, Emersons Global Users Exchange and the Vision Councils Executive Summit.

In his blog post: Addition is Greater than Subtraction: 11 is greater than 12 Uldrich encourages his readers to take a whole month of per year to just think. Ideation is the basis for creative endeavors and creative minds tend to produce at greater rates and the results are far more innovative. In addition to AHA, Uldrich urges his listeners take time to say ah and simply relax.

Can one relax and prepare in tandem? Jack Uldrich says the answer is yes, and as he explores the Big AHA with more and more organizations like Kidde and his upcoming clients of West Kendall Baptist Hospital, BCBS, Foth and Stiles the more it sounds like he is prepared to relax and help others succeed.

Leading futurist Daniel Burrus to teach CPAs how to anticipate future trends and game-changing opportunities

Posted: at 9:40 am

BALTIMORE, MD (PRWEB) April 07, 2015

May 4, 2015 The most important competency in the business world today the ability to anticipate future trends and position our organizations to take advantage of them is a mystery to most of the accounting and finance profession.

World-renowned technology forecaster, innovation expert, and New York Times best-selling author Daniel Burrus wants to change that.

Burrus will join forces with the Maryland Association of CPAs (MACPA) and the Business Learning Institute (BLI) on May 4 to launch The Anticipatory Organization: Accounting and Finance The event, part of the MACPA / BLI Speaker Series, will be held at the Hilton Baltimore BWI Hotel .

The need for future-focused strategies has never been greater. In a recent national survey, 76 percent of small business owners say their CPAs are not proactive, and 75 percent have changed firms because their CPAs are providing reactive services rather than proactive advice. Another recent survey found that only 6 percent of CFOs, controllers, and management accountants say they are future-ready.

The Anticipatory Organization model, created and developed by Burrus and Burrus Research, Inc., has changed how many of the worlds most successful businesses plan their future and accelerate growth.

Now, Burrus is bringing what he calls the greatest missing competency the ability to anticipate change to CPAs, CFOs, controllers and management accountants. This model represents a new way of thinking, planning, and acting a paradigm shift thats required in a world of accelerating change, competition, and uncertainty.

Competencies such as reacting and responding (crisis management), being lean and agile, and executing strategy well did not help Blockbuster, BlackBerry, Dell, HP, Sony, and many others avoid major problems. The ability to anticipate the future is a skill; it can be learned. In todays business landscape, it is the most important missing competency.

This special edition of the Anticipatory Organization is about anticipating problems, disruptions, customer needs, and new opportunities before they happen. Its about adjusting the way we approach our businesses, our profession, and our customers to see beyond the media-induced hype of today and identify actionable solutions that will be the catalysts for innovation and competitive advantage. It provides the confidence we need to make bold moves.

The Anticipatory Organization model teaches accounting and finance professionals to actively anticipate what will happen, identify related opportunities, and take action to shape the future by becoming an Anticipatory CPA. By learning how to identify and take action on fully predictable hard trends (trends that will happen) and more easily manipulated soft trends (trends that might happen), we can elevate our relevancy in a world of transformational change.

Comic Box: Futurist tale 'The Surface' brimming with scientific jargon

Posted: at 4:40 am

Prolific comic book author and futurist Warren Ellis has had some choice words for those people who ask questions like, "where's my jetpack?" as they decry the lack of the tomorrow land they were promised. The future shown to us by the science fiction of my childhood and many others is one which we have made obsolete, or leapfrogged past or abandoned entirely.

The future is here and it is weird and the new futures dreamed up by science fiction prophets are in many ways even stranger than anything we ever imagined being. For me this is best embodied by the predicted technological singularity, the point at which technology will move beyond human control and fundamentally alter our world or the universe at large.

Alongside this is the proliferation of theories abounding in the realm of physics known as string theory, the most interesting to my mind being the holographic principle. At its simplest interpretation, this hypothesis postulates that the universe is a holograph, bringing into question the very nature of our reality.

Taking the world we live in and pushing it very close to the edge of something that sounds like a small step from the holographic principle, we have Ales Kot's new book "The Surface." Starting in Tanzania we are introduced to a polyamorous relationship composed of a threesome of hackers and rebels looking for the pan time and space realm referred to in urban legend as the Surface, where the universal holograph is accessible and your thoughts directly and immediately effect the reality around you.

The first issue also throws around quite a lot of dialogue regarding the free flow of information, hacking, government overreach, privacy rights and the abandonment of personal privacy, and a great many other issues pressing in current events and breathing down the neck of our future.

The first issue of "The Surface" closes with our adventurous threesome reaching their goal and the world getting even weirder. The bulk of the issue is composed of information and stage dressing though, not all of it terribly gripping. A great deal of scientific jargon is dropped and quasi philosophical bon mots litter the overstuffed panels.

Despite this Kot manages to put together an issue that is frequently sharp, and doesn't hesitate to make sharp comments about art, artists, and the culture of creativity. In many ways the first issue of "The Surface" suffers from "first issue syndrome" in that it does a whole lot of set up but doesn't give us a lot to become emotionally invested in. That said, it gives us a great deal that is thought provoking and worth reading more about in the hopes that both parts of the equation can meet.

In many ways "The Surface" brings to mind Warren Ellis' seminal work "Transmetropolitan." I would go so far as to say that the first issue compresses a great many of the most salient points of the series into super concentrated tidbits and I would be shocked if the series did not go on to further draw on the spirit of that series. For those who have followed Ellis and his futurist writings "The Surface" will hit some of the same sweet spots that his work does.

The ideas presented so far are big and worthy of exploration, but whether Kot's book grows into the gleams of potential evident in the first issue and the ability to thoroughly explore them remains to be seen. But the potential is there, and with the creativity shown so far it would be a shame to not give it at least the chance to impress us.
