Brave New World

Revealing the new rules for success in the future world of work

“Dean delivered one of the most thought provoking and innovative presentations that I have seen in a very long time. Genuine new insight is very rare and the ability to draw implementable business conclusions is virtually unique. Dean has that.” Steve Martin, Branch Chairperson – Manchester, Institute of Financial Planning

There is great deal of uncertainty in business today. You wouldn’t be wrong in thinking the seasons have changed and winter is upon us, the business thermometer is looking decidedly chilled.

In September 2008 the world changed forever and although many business leaders are hoping for a return to normal, there is now a new normal and new set of rules for success.

Brave New World uses a combination of the latest business research, humour, multimedia and case studies to reveal what these new rules for success are. You are taken on an exciting journey into the future and shown what business leaders need to do today to ensure competitiveness during what will be a very different decade from the one before.

Using stories taken from yacht racing to life on coral reefs Dean paints a vivid and compelling view of the future of work and highlights the practical steps companies need to follow to become World 2.0 compatible. Thought-provoking, entertaining and powerful, essential for any company strategy away day, team event or conference.
