730 Days from Now

730 Days from Now

We are standing at one of the most challenging crossroads in human history--one that may not enable our past to predict our future. Technological evolution has, in less than a decade, connected every human being on the planet at the touch of a button. Matched by demographic growth at both ends of the age continuum, we are fundamentally different people than we were only a few years ago. There are three drivers in this maelstrom that, if properly understood, can help one prosper in this chaos--mastering the concepts of the compression of time, the plentitude of access, and the removal of value economics. In this presentation, Brody will help you assemble a plan to master these concepts, to navigate the world around you, and most importantly, to be prepared for the next 730 days of your life.
Unrecognizable--The New Us: How the Web and Social Media Have Fundamentally Changed Our Behaviors

Unrecognizable--The New Us: How the Web and Social Media Have Fundamentally Changed Our Behaviors

We are living in one of the most complicated and transformative times in human history; a period in time of a magnitude more significant than any other period before it. We have experienced more change in the past 17 years than we saw in the critical 195 years from industrialization to the end of World War II. Technology platforms have unlocked layers of human desire and behaviors that were previously dormant or thought unattainable. We are simply not the same people we were a decade ago. Many of the structures developed around institutions like government, education, human resources, and marketing were fundamentally designed hundreds of years ago and no longer reflect the needs of the people they were intended to serve. As a two-time-Emmy-nominated entrepreneur, Brody will teach you not only some of the fundamentals of the genre and tricks of the trade, but more importantly, enlighten you about the intricacies and changes of the most important currency in social media--human beings.
