129. Futures Thinking and Strategies for Tomorrow: A Futurist's Exploration of the World of Work [Dr. Elissa Farrow]

Trusted Authority - The Podcast

Who wouldn't love to have a glimpse into a crystal ball every now and then? 🔮👋 But the next closest thing to preparing for the future — with a more scientific aspect — is to talk to a futurist. And that's exactly what we do in this week's Trusted Authority - The Podcast interview. We're joined by Dr. Elissa Farrow, who specialises in working with companies and leaders to reimagine the future of their industry and business, assisting them in bridging the gap between the now and then. This conversation was beyond fascinating as we dove into aspects of this topic, feeling like we were opening a can of worms. In the end, we're not only facing more challenges but also more complex situations than ever before, without being able to follow a 'paint-by-the-numbers' approach, simply because we've never had to deal with these kinds of events before. But this is what we have to come to terms with: Disruption is the new normal and to prepare for what’s next, we need to be able to anticipate and respond to change, no matter the role, profession or industry we are in. And the only way to reimagine what the future might look like is to learn and apply the art and science of futures thinking. Dr Elissa Farrow gives us a glimpse of how we can do that and a lot more: → The role of a futurist [and how to see what's ahead in 50+ years] → A recap of trends, changes and updates that shape what's next → What the future of work actually means and how it will look like → The impact of Ai and working in a hybrid [AI + Humans] world of work → Skills to focus on to future-proof careers and businesses → How to make decisions [without having all the answers] Connect with Dr Elissa Farrow on Linkedin: Visit her website over at: ___________ Want to become the Trusted Authority in your field by building and monetising your expertise?
