In an era when change is accelerating, there are key business principles and competitive factors that will remain steady. This presentation identifies those factors and gives specific actions your audience will want to take in the next decade. This is a pragmatic, answer-packed presentation that is bound to leave your audience more confident about tomorrow.

Bob covers the following points:

• What are the "technology holes" of the next decade?
• Seven key strategic foundations for the future that won't change for the next ten years.
• Specific action steps to lay these foundations under your enterprise right now.
• How to blend these critical factors that will not change with those that will.
• Specific situations to your own industry, field, or company.
• Factual, research-based support for the seven factors

This is one of Bob's most popular new topics. Speakers on change too often make sweeping predictions that "everything" will be different in the future. This presentation uses foresight to help you see which areas of your business do NOT have to be abandoned, but instead need to be emphasized and embraced in the years ahead. Technology speakers too often offer breathless forecasts of how emerging innovations will change the face of business. This presentation allows you to separate the reality from the folly of those predictions.
