Opening Keynote Presentation
The Anticipatory Organization: Turn Disruption and Change into Opportunity and Advantage
Thursday, September 2 | 8:45 am – 10:00 am | Daniel Burrus
Based on decades of research and experience applying his Hard Trend methodology to leading companies worldwide, Daniel Burrus has identified the missing competency: Anticipation.
With his Anticipatory Organization Model, Burrus enables business leaders to separate Hard Trends from Soft Trends. When you learn to analyze and perceive trends this way, it is possible to tap into what he calls Everyday Innovation, solving challenges faster, and recognizing previously invisible opportunities.
Mastering these capabilities will position your dealership to be the disruptor instead of being the disrupted – thus creating competitive advantage, and reducing risk.
