WHAT IT'S LIKE TO HIRE JARED AS A SPEAKER
First of all...
It's not your ordinary "futurist" talk. What I mean is...
Most futurist deliver a 90 minute keynote on emerging trends and issues which, certainly has value BUT...
Tends to leave the audience with one big question:
"How does all this apply to me today?"
Rather than giving a traditional futurist keynote, Jared delivers TED-style talks that focus HOW to think about the future rather than telling the audience WHAT to think about the future.
The goal being that we as individuals stop PREPARING for a future that’s yet to be determined and start CREATING the kind of future we want to see.
This leaves plenty of room for Q&A where the audience can engage with Jared around specific questions and issues they're facing today.
Some of the recent topics Jared has spoken on:
-
How to Create the Future on Your Terms
-
How to Stop Living by Some "Other Guy's" Idea of the Future and Start Creating Your Own.
-
Re-inventing Your Life and Work for the 21st Century.
-
Navigating the Generational Minefield: strategies for cultivating a successful diversified workforce
-
Creating a Cohesive Vision for the 21st Century.
Jared’s keynote on The 3 C’s for Creating the Future, helped me rethink my relationship to the future. I no longer see the future as something to fear, but instead seeing uncertainty as an opportunity to envision a new future. In other words, You can't see what you can't imagine.
I attended Jared’s keynote at the AAIE 2019 conference. The theme was ‘Being on time for the Future’. Preparing our students for a future that is uncertain has been a taking point at many schools and between many educators for quite some time. Jared’s talk was different because he challenged the idea of the future and made us think about creating the future rather than preparing for it. I particularly enjoyed his breakout session where we looked at future trends and discussed the opportunities and challenges that would come with them.
As leaders, it’s vital we begin thinking more deeply and differently about the future. Jared’s workshops will give you the tools to not only think differently, but take action in a new and more proactive way.
As a futurist, Jared’s insights are firmly grounded in the present, and whose foresight is inspired by real people and organizations and their quest for innovation and change.
