Keynote Topics

The future is not a destination, new ones emerge every single day. But what does it really mean to actively engage with and lead in the face of that uncertainty?

In this keynote, Angela will unpack the very near and far future realities organizations are having to contend with, the forces and key trends shaping these futures, and will share the process of Futurecasting to lead in the face of radical and continuous change.

Organizations are confronting societal and environmental urgencies and contending with how to respond. Consumers are decisively choosing to support companies who lead and act with purpose. This keynote will cover how to innovate with purpose: building not only what’s new and what’s next but also thinking systemically about the consequences, the values, and the larger futures that our innovations will contribute to.

The horizon between today’s realities and tomorrow’s possibilities is where the future takes root. This is the space of transition. Angela will move through how transition thinking catalyzes change through bridging today’s needs with tomorrow’s vision.

She will unpack ways to make visible what is failing in the present for organizations and why, and how to envision meaningful futures and new directions forward. Finally, she will share how organizations can use experimentation to transition from where they are now to the futures they want.

Innovating during uncertain times is critical because that is exactly when people and systems are more porous and more willing to think about how things could be done differently – where new ideas, new questions, new visions for the future can and do take root.

This keynote will share strategies for innovating through uncertainty, expanding on how to reframe existential threats as existential choices for better ways to work, to consume, to build technologies and to shape our everyday lives – alongside how and which organizations are leading the way.
