http://www.globalchange.com Consumer and industry trends. How to become a Futurist. Book writing, research, website, lecturing and consulting to smaller and then larger corporations, becoming an authority in international media. The more you work with different corporations and the more countries you work in, the deeper your insights are likely to become and the more useful you will be as a Futurist. Break out of traditional thinking, take a fresh view on the world, watch people, learn all the time, be hungry to understand what does not at first make sense. You will be judged by your own track record of correctly anticipating important new trends. Can the future be predicted? Telling difference between high probability trends, likely, possible and unlikely -- plus the wild cards, areas of huge uncertainty. Patrick Dixon, conference keynote speaker and futurist. Advisor to manufacturing industry, phone companies, logistics, supply chain management, retail and wholesale, food and beverages (drink) industry, IT and software, computers, real estate and property management, oil and energy industries, travel, transport, hospitality, hotels, automotive and rail, freight. Consumer and marketing trends, brand development, customer relationship management and insight into behavior.

  • Looking forward to new videos mate

  • All these years I just thought I was strange for sitting and watching and forming analysis on what was before me and now I can have a label. True Futurists are born that way and aren't made. Call it a genetic code for insanity :D

    I thank you so much for your video :)

  • I am just moving into the writing stage. Now the question is, where to get into the business when I would like to do all this reading, listening, synthesizing, imagining, experimenting....

    I am fresh graduate who has been immersed in all kinds of information and knowledge for last 2-4 years and finally realized that "understanding" is most likely what drives me forward. I am ready to embrace understanding seeking and promotion as my life's purpose.

  • It really takes a career to get to where he is.

  • I think you have a fascinating job, it must be great to be so involved in the hub of the action of what is happining on a global stage
