KEYNOTE DESCRIPTION (Customized for Each Audience)
The rapid acceleration of digital transformation and disruption has diminished the effectiveness of traditional planning and innovation strategies. Moreover, the mere existence of a plan doesn’t ensure success. Let’s face it, every business in history that has failed or suffered a severe decline had a plan. Some plans were predicated on potential scenarios, and some assumed current trends would persist, while others were fixed plans aimed at executing a consistent strategy over several years, regardless of exponential technological change.
Daniel Burrus, the innovator behind the award-winning Anticipatory Organization® Planning Methodology, has revolutionized the approach to planning and innovation among highly successful organizations of all sizes, including the Department of Defense.
An exclusive offering available alongside Daniel Burrus’ keynote presentations.
